Let's kick this off with a laugh. Click on www.youtube.com/watch?v=B03dFMG8nR4.
Yes, I am training for an Ironman.
Problem #1: I don't swim.
Problem #2: I don't run.
Problem #3: I bike, but not that seriously.
This hasn't stopped me from being straight jacket worthy by registering for this year's Ironman in Panama City Beach, FL on November 5th. For those of you that don't know, I will be doing the following consecutively:
Swim: 2.4 miles (in the Gulf of Mexico)
Bike: 112 miles
Run: 26.2 miles (a marathon)
Over the past 3 years I've used BeachBody programs such as P90X, P90X+, Insanity, and One On Ones to get in the best shape of my life. After watching the Kona Ironman in November, I set a goal this year to do a 1/2 Ironman. Considering I was 25 the last time I did anything remotely like this (I'll be 48 when I do Panama City) I thought that would be an awesome challenge. Well, since I'm not a do 1/2 of anything kind of guy and I'm not all there either, I decided to do two 1/2 Ironmans or 1 full one...whichever comes first.
Friends, family, followers...ride along with me as I go for "The Dream". What's your 2011 fitness Dream (be very specific) and how do you plan on getting there?
I WILL do it. Will you?
