So it has been awhile since I have posted. But in that time, a few things have happened:) During my tainig for Ironman Louisville, I ended up losing almost 30 pounds! I also confirmed that I really enjoy the sport and the competition. Oh, yeah and I also became an IRONMAN!

Unreal experience and one that I would recommend to anyone that is considering it. You learn a lot about yourself during the training and during the event. I will definitely be doing another one in the future.

So now that my Ironman journey is completed, I am taking some time off before I get back in the saddle for next year. I am looking at doing 2 half ironman triathlons, 2 olympic triathlons, and several sprint distance triathlons. Should be a busy year.

During my training, I was part of Team Trakkers. While I didn't get a chance to actually test the device, I did learn about what it offers through observing other race beta test. This device looks to be very cool and very useful. Check it out at trakkersgps.com!

Finally I offer a parting question to those reading....do I get the IM tattoo or not?
