There are thousands of people who compete every year in Ironman events around the U.S. and internationally. While it is an individual sport, each individual is supported by a team of family, friends, bike mechanics, massage therapists, nutritionists, patient bosses, riding partners etc. This blog gives the reader a bird's eye view of the individual training, trials, and tribulations and the critical support of the village behind eventual success.
I have never, ever been hurting the day after a race. I am dying today. I am sore, I feel exhausted.....obviously I am spent. It is tempting to call in sick but this is self induced so I must get my butt to work. Advil and electrolytes, the course for the day. I hope I can bounce back on this day of rest.
