to get to know the route - 9 days left

today I swam and run at the competition course. To know the course beforehand is very important to me. This might be a psychological thing, but boosts my confidence. I picked some guiding positions on the water to navigate well. Also I had a look at the "stairways to heaven" at the run-course. There are 60 steps to climb until you reach the castle (see foto). That really is no fun, since it breaks your running-rythm. As a reward for the training today I drove to the next tri-shop and bought a rudy-project sunglas. :- )
