Ironman gets closer

thanks for posting this . this clip has had a profound effect on my life.

i have been watching that clip for nearly 2 years, usually on a sat night when i question why i am sober, when all my friends are either drunk or stoned off their heads.



"you can quit, and they wont care but you will always know"



this is the single reason i have been cycling around all year with a ton of weight strapped to my bike.

no way im stopping this year.







"this is the ironman"

    have been looking at you tube videos of ironman events for about the last month!



    they are awesome for inspiration! last night watched the:



    Sian Welch & Wendy Ingraham - The Crawl - 1997



    Phenonemenal! Hopefully wont quite get in that state!



    8 weeks and counting!

    Given that an IM is 9 - 17 hour event, there must be some merit in going right to the back and just waiting five minutes for everyone else to clear off, then swim after them with a patch of water to yourself?
