szpon<p>It's Thursday, I'm trying to eat more and more carbs, because there's a race on Saturday - 156km. I haven't ever went for that long.</p><p>I must say I have not recovered mentally from the last race... But this one is around my city and I kinda know what to expect (even if I don't remember how each part looks like in detail).</p><p>Last time at some point I couldn't fuel myself properly because I ate too much sweet stuff. There's a nice word for that in Polish - being 'oversweeten', so I'm getting something savory into my snack pouch (and extra powder to make more isotonic just in case).</p><p>I need to change tubeless valve in one wheel. Somehow Trezado valves don't work well for me. It should do for the race, but I want to change it to see if it makes a difference. Otherwise everything looks fine, I will make one pass through all the screws to see if they hold properly.</p><p>I don't aim to race, I want to finish it. I would like at some point, though, to try aim for the result, not just for fun, but not now.</p><p>Keep fingers crossed for me and my pal.
