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 am not getting any faster in the pool but at least I have cut back on the amount of energy required to swim 2.6 miles. Today I swam a mile, rested for a minute, swam a mile rested for a minute then finished with a 500 and a 400. Funny how 400 is now my cool down when I used to dread it as being too long.
