Ironteam has arrived. We got in to our hotel after 10 pm. A 3 hour stopover in Cleveland is not fun. The view from the plane was nice. Very green. Very different from "brown" LA. If you take away the lights, the buildings, you can imagine what a beautiful frontierland this area must have been 200 years ago.
With taper, I have a lot of nervous energy. I feel like a coiled snake ready to strike. How do you relax before your 1st Ironman? Hopefully I can come up with something. Ironteam will register at expo, pick up our bikes, and go for a short bike ride today. Perhaps I'll have some KFC.
In 2009, while training with Team in Training for the Full Vineman Triathlon, I was injured in a ski accident. I had ACL reconstruction in 7/09. After rehab, I trained for 10 months and became an Ironman at IM Louisville on August 29, 2010. Today I am a 15x Ironman. I have qualified to participate in Ironman Kona on October 8, 2016 through the Ironman Legacy Program. Follow my adventure as I join Ironteam and raise funds for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society on my Road to Kona!
