Missy has had a busy day, getting ready for tomorrow morning. There will be 3,500 people in the triathlon, including the mayor of D.C., and they've all spent today getting ready and getting all of their gear in order.
Team Holmes did the practice swim in the river earlier. Here are some pics...
It's been warmer than expected and I think the high for tomorrow is supposed to be 96. The temp in the river is around 80.
Missy says that after they swim, they'll all run barefoot for a while to get to the bikes. My dad and Kyle will hopefully be right there when Missy gets out of the river and will run along with her to the bikes. The racers have extra water bottles to hose off their feet, then they put on their shoes and ride.
It's been a full day and really exciting for everyone.
