"You will lose someone you can't live without, and your heart will be badly broken,and the bad news is that you never completely get over the loss of your beloved. But this is also the good news. They live forever in your broken heart that doesn't seal back up. And you come through. It's like having a broken leg that never heals perfectly- that still hurts when the weather gets cold, but you learn to dance with the limp." (Anne Lamott)

Ironman Coeur d'Alene
I am going to be starting a Training Blog come January of 2008 but I will officially announce it here. My first IRONMAN. 2008. Coeur d'Alene, Idaho (or as my friend Robin likes to call it- Quarter Lane)
I will take on a 2.4 mile swim
then a 112 mile bike
and finish it off with a 26.2 mile run.
All in one day. June 22, 2008 that is. Heidi Hanna and her family made it super possible for me to get into this race and I am so very grateful. Since I became addicted to the sport of triathlon a little over a year ago, I knew an Ironman would be in my future.
This is going to be a huge day for me. You may not understand why I do this. I don't ask you understand much like you wouldn't ask me to understand being married, having kids.....or wherever life has taken you. Support me and this dream. I am going to rock this course in 2008.
Just you wait.
