Ok here it is folks, the "ultimate" goal...to complete a full Ironman race before my 45th birthday. 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike, 26.2 mile run. Call it delusional, or a death wish.. that's for you to decide. I really do not know what this middle aged, slightly overweight body is capable of, but it will be interesting to find out. Thus far I have registered for a 15k race next month, and my first full marathon in January 2010. This is what my planned race schedule looks like.
Sept. 2009 15k
Oct. 2009 Half-marathon
Jan. 2010 Marathon
June 2010 70.3 Ironman (Half-Ironman)
Nov. 2010 Ironman
Keep checking back for training progress and race reports. I will try to update daily.
