All systems go!!! The rest of the DeFilippis clan has arrived and so has my sherpa and Asian Triathlon Superstar protege Amy. The Italians are making the pre-race dinner tonight and I’m loving being part of the family here!
We got all the pre-race stuff done…

Dumpstar and Bella at the press conference
Bikes checked in!

I have the fastest wheelset on the pro rack
bags checked in!

very organized here
But most importantly…Waffle House pre-race grease-loading!

open 24/7 and within stumbling distance of the condo
Coach said I could eat a waffle before the race.

it's a chocolate chip waffle

Scottie ready to grease-load!

I highly reccommend the bacon and eggs on Texas toast
I also got a custom airbrushed shirt from Super Duper Wal-mart:

the back view. I guess I didn't get too fat after eating all that Waffle House.
OH yeah…and filled up the Camelbak with Starbucks…

fueled by Frappuccino!
You can track me online at ironmanlive.com. I am bib #13 and if I am going fast enough they will mention me in the live updates!
Amy will also be hijacking my Twitter account, so she will be posting up LIVE TWEETS for you to follow. Because that’s how a real superstar rolls!! Follow me tomorrow at twitter.com/theWongstar.
Thanks for all your support. I’m gonna smash it!
