This is it!!

Well friends this is the last blog before the race. I want to thank each and every one of you for following me to this point. I don't know all of you but I do appreciate you taking this journey with me. I'm excited to get this going but I'm also sad that it's coming to and end. My training has become a big part of my life. I know that this will not be the last Ironman for me. I hope that some of you will join me for triathlon races in the future. It's not about being the fastest, it's about living and enjoying our life's to the fullest. Thank you again for your support.

I Officially started this journey on 1 Dec 2009 with a 12 minute swim. I've gone a long way since that first workout. As a matter of fact, I've gone 2463.55 miles in the last 9 months.

Here is the breakdown:

Swim - 65.46 miles over 36:40:10 for an average of 33:36 per mile.
Bike - 1898.3 miles over 101:00:07 for an average of 3:12 per mile.
Run - 499.84 miles over 63:23:21 for an average of 7:36 per mile.

Tomorrow on race day you can follow me online at www.ironman.com
When you get to that page you'll see a LIVE window in the middle top of the page with Ironman Canada and Ironman Louisville. Click on the Athlete Tracker for Ironman Louisville. My bib number is 2481 and my age group is 45-49. There are timing mats that I cross a number of time during the day that update my position.

Once again thank you for your support. It's been an awesome adventure that I plan to do again and again. I hope you'll follow me tomorrow on my race as well as in the future.

Have a great day!
