all things cbl

So today I was thinking about this goal of mine.. do an IronMan by age 30.. I have like 14 months left and I’m not ready. No where near being ready. So I say to myself.. “how hard can it be? I just need to train like every day”. Then I get into my head how I can get ready for said IronMan next year…the best way might be to do the Utah Half. I mean how hard can it be? hah

Only 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike and 13.1 mile run. I have 9 hours do to it in. Can it be THAT hard? Yeah, probably.. if I dont train. It is August 9th, so I have a little under three months to do it. I’ve already been swimming three times this week during lunch and been to the gym three times as well. Eating better, eating less and making sure I keep drinking all the water like I have been.. I’ve lost about 7 pounds in the last week. Down to 243. w00t.

So anyway.. random thought.. To Half or not? I think I will. It’s two weeks after the Spudman in Idaho..and Spudman is going to be olympic in length, so that’ll be a good warmup for me to do the Half, I’d say. We’ll see.. but I thinking of registering soon.
