What seemed like a fantasy, an unimaginable pipe dream off in the distant future, is actually here.
Today, in Tempe, AZ, I will swim, bike, and run with about 3,000 other crazy fools. I've worked hard to make it here and to cross that finish line. I am ready.
Throughout this hectic week I've been repeating a simple mantra (whose source I can't recall):
Have the day you have!
Today, I WILL have the day I have and it's gonna be freakin awesome!
Good luck to all the other Locos (both the Miami Tri Locos and the other crazies).
See you at the finish line!
One man's journey from a run-loathing, water-fearing, multi-sport dreamer, to a determined age-group triathlete and Ironman.
