Well, it's a good thing that Jim and I planned things out well or today really could have been a series of frustrations. Instead it was a long day where everything went pretty smoothly.
We are staying down in Keauhou, near where the dive shop is located. However, the triathlon is located up in the Kohala area, 45 minutes drive away. So we had to decide whether to be inconvenienced for two days by staying in Keauhou, or 5 days by staying at the host hotel the Fairmont. So we picked Keauhou (which has the added bonus of being MUCH cheaper).
We had to coordinate race check in, bike check in, and mandatory athlete meeting, some of which were in different areas (the swim was at Hapuna Beach). They had a remote parking lot with shuttle buses that shuttled you to the resort and Hapuna Beach. It worked out great.
We left the condo at 8:30 AM and got back to it about 4:30, but everything went well, and they are all ready to go!
We had a pasta dinner at the condo and early bedtime to get ready for the big day tomorrow!
