#34 complete an ironman triathlon
140.6 miles (2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike, 26.2 mile run)
- I finished in 14 hours, 56 minutes, beating my goal by nearly two hours.
- My biggest fear at the beginning of the race was the swim, but I finished in 1 hour 29 minutes; a personal best
- By mid afternoon (on the bike) the temperature was in the mid 90’s
- At the end of the bike ride I thought to myself that this was the most tired I have ever been in my life… Only 26 more miles to go
- By the end I had lost 9 pounds and 2 toenails.
