Happy Aniversary Honeyah!

Training for Ironman is, well, difficult.  For the athlete there is the long hours of training and suffering that is quickly rewarded with results.

The family of an Ironman on the other hand, sees only sacrafice.  Sacrafice that the Ironman selfishly takes day in and day out, seemingly withour reguard - Not this one!

Without you, I cannot become the Ironman that I so selfishly want to become - THANKYOU, I love you and Happy 10th Aniversary Honeyah!

As I run for hours on end I think about odd things. Last Tuesday I contemplated how lucky I was to be an introvert and how beneficial that was to my training. I look forward to the hours of solitude that running provides me and the mental cleansing that gets me prepared for my workday.

Then Thursday as I dodged a car driver hurrying to work I contemplated mortality and the many friends and family I had lost the past two years. I somehow likened those losses to endurance training and how each of those would prepare me for the inevitable more difficult losses I may have to endure in the future.

On a brighter note I thought today a I read Karno's 50/50 book how cool it would be to run marathon some day with my, now 5 yr. old, daughter Katie; one more for the Bucket List

NGU!

October Update

My first tri is rapidly approaching. I am almost ready; I need to drop 5 more lbs.

I've been very busy at work the past month, but have managed to maintain a good training routine.

I've been doing more running lately due to some motivation I gained from reading Dean Karnazi's first book.

So...while on a business trip last month my coworker complained of a sore hip and proclaims that her body has let her down. Being my usual sensitive self I responded that she was incorrect, that in fact it was her that let her body down.

Ngu!!!
