550 chord anyone?

Ok so I have salsa all over my face from the half a flank steak, part of a chicken breast, entire bag of green beans, half a bag  of kale, half an avocado and black beans I just ate in approximately 43 seconds...If this is ANY inclination of how fast I will finish this race eff it...who needs to train I'm ready. 
Every morning for at LEAST the last two years I have set my alarm clock for 0500 in the HOPES I would get up and do my met con/cardio training in the dark where it belongs and save my heavy stamina /endurance stuff for later in the day where I can focus on it.  For at LEAST two years when that alarm goes off at 0500 I reach over and reset it for 0700.  You think I'm kidding but EVERYday I set it...EV-ER-Y-DAY and I can say with the utmost gravity  it has happened like MAYBE twice I have gotten up and I PROMISE it was only because I told someone I would meet them there...I am NOT self motivated and again ask Sarah she can pretty much vouch for anything I ever say.  WELL ladies and gentlemen I am here to proudly say that THIS morning when that alarm went off at 0500...I re-set it for 0700.  UUUGGGGGGG DAMNIT KATYA!!! WHY DO YOU REFUSE TO GET OUT OF BED!!! So instead of splitting my two-a -days into two-a-days... yea that's right...I have to suck and try to do it all at once. 
Today was some mess of an AMRAP inside of and AMRAP 30 minutes of rowing a 1000m and then in the time it took to do that do AMRAP 20 weighted step up and 20 sit ups  (my French bull dog just ate a giant flying bug he is staring at me chewing it...it's hilarious I digress) Then just because I'm wicked smart I did 4 rounds of 3x225# dead lifts 5Xwall kisses 10XKB windmills on each side.  Honestly I feel awesome except it's like 8pm and I smell like ammonia.
On an up note The Borders in my awesome town is closing so all their books are 60% off including the next book on my list for book club that I found in the adult section...ok that's a lie I found it in the sociology section but that's not really funny so I changed it...
So now that I have fed and can focus I am going to start my list of things I think I might need for this race.  Yes it's a ways out and NO I haven't gotten the official gear list but I am making an attempt to get ahead and I really like making lists.  Duct tape, 550 chord, barbed wire gloves, steel wool and a battery, chap stick, snacks, my petzel I'm taking suggestions from everyone following except my Dad's sister Dee Dee I'm not going to pack dignity or my nuns' habit so don't bother suggesting them!
