2.4 miles to swim...112 miles to ride...26.2 miles to run...one day to do it...and ten months to train for it. I will try to keep frequent updates and journals of my training progress right up until race day...August 1, 2009.

Why am I doing this?
That’s a great question, I’m glad you asked. I’m doing this race in honor of those who cannot, in particular I’m doing it in honor of my friend JUAN ALDERETE who has been diagnosed with polycythemia vera.

But why the blog?
I wanted to start this blog as sort of a personal journal of my training progress. I have no idea if anyone will read it, but I have a feeling it will serve as well needed release when the days get tough. Plus, I’m usually on my computer most of the day, and everyone has a blog these days, so why not join in the fun?
