I am officially registered for Ironman 70.3 in Racine on July 20, 2014!
I've heard a lot of this, "Are you nervous?" No...not yet anyway. I'm really excited. I suppose that if I was being totally honest, I am a little nervous, but not about the race. I'm more worried about putting in the time to train and having the time I want to devote to it to do well. I have been thinking long and hard about my goals for the race. At this point, my goal is to finish in 6.5 hours or less (1 hour for swim, 3.5 for bike, and 2 hours for run, including all the transitions). I hope to be able to shave some time off that goal over the next few months.
Also registered for a practice tri in May so that I have some general idea what I'm doing in Racine. The May race is a sprint distance. Should be fun.
Here's my sweet training set up:
logged 45 minutes in the trainer yesterday, and wanted to gouge my eyes out from boredom after 2 minutes. Next time will be more prepared with mental distractions!
I've been taking TRX classes at the Y, and got this for my birthday!
and my official race hat!
