Yes I just seen that. He deserves a medal and IS an Ironman! Yes it is VERY emotional to watch. I have had the dream of toeing the line at IM for a long time and I just hope I get that chance one day. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8YKEwt3wO0

The journey behind such an accomplishment is as different as each participant is. We've all got our own roads to travel and to follow where it'll lead us. The lives we choose to live affect our dreams. IMO, none are ever the perfect choice. Yep, you can do it! Now to find that switch and the right connections. :+D

Such a good story about never giving up. Thanks for your inspiring words. I should stop complaining and start doing. (Not that I will tri.) But I will seek to keep a positive attitude and do my best! Maybe one day when I'm not so afraid of the water I will tri. I have to admit it is my fear as well, I'm glad you conquered yours by doing this race. I'm sure you look back at it and have gained a ton of experience. In fact sharing your thoughts about the open water is something that worries me too.

Watching Ironman today was just what I needed to recharge my motivation to train.

I think my venture into doing the distance last year stemed from a seed sown a long time ago when I watched a few Ironman events on TV. This was when I was sedentarry. I didn't understand it, but I could feel the strength and determination put forth by the athletes throughout the race. Then their pride once they had crossed that finish line and had caught their breathe. AWESOME! :+D
