Min Dae

The days are starting to jumble together now. Less than a week left until we fly, and my lists are getting longer, the training sessions shorter and family time more precious.

My SA kit arrived on Friday - or rather, I went to fetch it from Post Net. Their "next day" service took from Monday when it was posted, to Friday morning when I collected. Well, it actually arrived on Thursday midday, but I was at work, presenting my board report, then on to the AGM and dinner. No time for collecting parcels.

So I ripped the parcel open on my way back to my car on Friday morning. I couldn't remember what I had ordered, so it was very exciting. Here it all is:





I tried everything on and modelled for my family on Saturday night - it sent a shiver of anticipation down my spine to realise that this time next week I will be strutting my stuff around the airports of the world wearing my South African colours, clearly identifying me as a South African Triathlete!

I'm having to take big gulps of air to keep my excitement at a manageable level!
