Play It Again Sam

I had the opportunity to support my good friend Janet Daly (@janetkdaly) during her iron distance race this past weekend. She won the inaugural Bone Island Full Triathlon by the way. First OA Female. Pretty skilled little lady we have there. Super proud of her.

The timing was actually perfect. I'm back from 6 months off, for all intents and purposes, since, let's be honest, Vegas and the associated haphazard training effort really doesn't count. A work buddy and fellow cyclist, Simon, said to me at dinner last week, "you need to teach me to be this committed to training". I laughed and said "ya join the club. I've 'un-habit-ed' my training and need to teach myself again!" And so a week in with all workouts complete, I found myself cheering for Janet in Key West and in so doing, finding that I was completely caught up in that ironman magic again. I have no doubts that I want to do this again and I am prepared to bust my butt to make it a reality.

And so I did it. Made the commitment to do it and signed up for Ironman Louisville. It's amazing what actually signing up does for you vs just saying you're going to do it. Of course forking over $650 also tends to help the commitment too ;)

It's gonna be a long tough 8 months. I've got a lot of work to do. SO much work. Stay tuned...I invite you along with me on my journey once more.

Happy training!
