Well, it was a long and busy day here in Budapest. Got up early for a team breakfast, followed by a trip (for Kim) down to the race site for registration. I headed into Pest to recce out the other spots we would be visiting today. We linked up for the Paratriathlete Briefing at 1330 and went to the Team Canada Meet and Greet at a local sports bar (owned by an expat Canadian and, supposedly, Wayne Gretzky). This was followed by the Team Canada photo. While the rest of the team headed out for the opening ceremonies, we headed over to the Hotel Intercontinental to get Kim classified. So, according to the experts, Kim is actually missing her right leg above the knee - can you see the sarcasm at all? Anyway, she has officially been classified and can qualify for medals now.
We will head down to the race site again tomorrow, to check out the newly-set up transition area and to drop Kim's bike off. After that, it is all race prep, all of the time...
I think I will go and drink a tasty beer now...
