I finished my first half-ironman! It's a really tough course and I had a blast. My time kind of sucked because I couldn't run the run course very much but I beat my projected bike and swim times so I was happy anyway.

Here's my race report:

Way to go!  That is impressive.  I used to love to watch the ironman.   Cool

MacMadame - you continue to be such an inspiration to me with the way you MYA. Exercise is not something I enjoy doing, and I love to watch those who do enjoy do their thing. So proud of you and happy for you!

I'm a bit stunned too. If it's okay to be stunned by yourself.  Tongue

Now I want to do another one. But my PT wants me to rest for a bit and not aggravate my calf.

I can't believe I missed this Mac - you are an inspiration - to do the half ironman, even with that calf still getting you.  A-FREAKING-MAZING!

Thanks!

I'm both frustrated and happy with how much training is going. I can now swim the 2.4 of the full ironman in 90 min just like I wanted to. And it's only July. (IM is in Nov.)

But my biking is still slow.

And I haven't run since Mid-May. Sigh.
