I set goals and work hard to accomplish them

I understand the power of the human will

I strive to help others in their quest for success

I know that I can face whatever road lies ahead

I am not satisfied with the status quo

My true self shines through

I am a TRIATHLETE* *author unknown

Getting Race Ready – My first half Ironman

Could Not Stop Smiling A Sprint to the Finish

Triathlon may be an individual sport, but NO ONE participates without the encouragement, love and support of MANY.

My deepest gratitude and thanks to all those who enabled my first Ironman experience to be the dream that it was..

My coach: Nancy Dickinson of Corehore Fitness

My family, friends and coworkers

My fellow participants

The volunteers, staff and spectators

WE DID IT!!

It will hurt.

It will take time

It will require dedication.

It will require willpower.

You will need to make healthy decisions.

It requires sacrifice.

You will need to push your body to its max.

There will be temptation.

But, I promise you, when you reach your goal, it’s worth it.

What will you TRI next??
