Time to get back in the game... Ironman 2013 here we come!

To everyone who's been following, I thank you for your support. I owe an apology for my recent lack of posting. It's been a very busy 2012 so far and I have gotten a little off track from where this blog originally started.  We've been planning the wedding which is coming very quickly in May.  It's been really exciting and really fun, but it takes a lot of our time.  If I'm being honest, which is what this is all about, I haven't trained like I had set out to do.  The April race is too close to the wedding to realistically be able to accomplish and the finances of purchasing a bike, entrance fee, etc... don't fall in our budget.

I haven't given up that easily though! Excuses are just that, excuses... If you remember back to one of the first posts I said my ultimate goal is to finish an Ironman race by the time I am 30.  Well, I have upped the ante a little bit on that and have set my sights on early to middle of 2013!! I would love to compete in Wisconsin or St. George and one of those two will be my focus. When it's decided I will keep you updated!

I invite you to come along on this journey with me. It's not about winning, it's not about "just finishing", it's about proving to myself that I can do it. There will be down times, up times, bad times, and good times; all of which I will uncandidly share with you.

For a goal like this, one needs support.  I hope for you to help in that support and enjoy the ride. I know that I will. I started training this week by upping the intensity and distances of all workouts.  During my absence from writing I did not just sit on the couch like a blob so at least I have a good platform to build from.  Once again, thanks to everyone for following and stay tuned for some real entertainment and who knows, maybe one day you'll see me in KONA!
