No, not really, but I do think watching IMLP really hit me hard, in the emotional way. And that has helped me refocus so I can do better these last 6 weeks. So, I decided to go to Columbia for a few laps. Becky told me riding the course backwards was really good training for Wisconsin. So, I did one backwards, one the regular way, and finished backwards. Backwards is MUCH harder than the regular course, so I was happy I did that, twice. Also, the first 2 laps were great because there was cloud cover. The last lap was a bit harder as the sun came out, and my body did not like that. But, I was really happy with the day. I couldn't run after, but manged to power walk a good 20 minutes.
I then sat in my car for 10 minutes with the AC on high to cool down.
Since I don't have any fun pictures to post from the ride, I thought I would post some from the Columbia race. Thanks to Sandy for the pictures and Carolina for taking them!
I almost look scared to start the swim...
I never see the people taking the pictures on the bike!
Start of the run with my "jazz hands". 
Yup. I CRUSHED that race.

When riding backwards, it must be difficult to pedal in reverse, or do you have a reverse gear that allows you to pedal forwards but go backwards? :)
