Today I'm off to Vegas for my first ever Xterra off-road triathlon-
Xterra West Championships. I will be joining the pro field so I am predicting quite the entertaining race report in just a few days.

| 1.5k swim, 30k mountain bike, 10k run |
I am armed with my Cannondale Women's Lexi and ready to go!

| Lexi "lefty" ready to roll |
Typical Vegas weather is hot and dry. Just my style. "Lucky" for me, it is going to be chilly and rainy
according to the forecast. WTF? Seriously, rain in VEGAS? Oh well, the more mud the better...
I hear the course is all UP or DOWN. And more than one person has described it as similar to riding on the moon. Sounds like the most technical part of the course is the loose rock/ sandy descents...

We shall see. I have a pre-ride of the course planned with Rich & Kate on Friday so I'm hoping I build some confidence by knowing the course a little bit.
Ok, off to Vegas, baby!
