I realize I have only completed 4 weeks of my IM training, but I am already asking myself if IM will be my drug...my addiction...my obsession...my infatuation. I am loving the training that goes with IM. The training keeps me feeling "fit." I have little stress, eat and sleep well and feel healthy all the way around.
Even on days when I feel tired and just want to sit on the couch, if I walk out the door for my run, go to the pool for my swim, head to the basement for a ride or venture to the gym for a strength training workout I feel so much better. Once I get started the energy level rises and I feel amazing...euphoric!!
Will I do more than one 140.6 race? At this point, I sure hope to!! Like I said earlier...I am loving this sport and the training that goes with IM!! How addicting will it be???? We'll soon see!!
I am a 30 something woman trying to balance family, work and exercise. My husband and I finished Ironman Wisconsin on September 11, 2011!! It was AMAZING to hear Mike Reilly say, "You are an Ironman!!"
