The countdown begins

Ironman training has been plugging along in New Orleans. I have my good days and bad days. The bad days seem to cloud the good days but I'm trying to stay positive. I'm not in official taper mode yet but things have been getting slightly shorter! Yay for that! And yay for my new training partner Dustin! He is also doing IM Florida. In addition to kicking my butt, he's kept me sane on my 5+ hour rides.


I told Kim S that this is her replacement...

As the season winds down and November 6th gets closer, my heart starts to beat a little faster. It's almost time! 18 days and counting ever so quickly.

I honestly felt a little blue when you left!! I told Kyle - you always know your true friends because you feel sad when they leave!! Almost there H!
