I’ve been cranking away at my Awesome Bucket quest to become an Ironman.
Even though it’s gobbled up almost all of my nights and weekends, and forced me to plan out nearly every waking hour, I’m enjoying this exercise (immensely).
The goal has driven me to overthink strategically about my training program and nutrition, develop and improve upon healthy habits, and challenge myself both physically and mentally.
Plus, I can see the benefits of all this hard work expanding into other parts of my life, including my writing and my career.
I’ve been diligently posting updates and helpful triathlon tips on TriforLes.com and wanted to pass along a few of my latest stories – most recent of which is my race recap from the Boulder Ironman 70.3 triathlon, a major checkpoint on the IronmanAZ journey.
Here’s a few more of my recent Tri for Les posts:
- Fill your tank like a frugal caveman
- Why you need more lacrosse ball
- Fake it till you become it
- Road map to Ironman AZ: Part 3 – Training Progress Report
Wish me luck as the big race gets closer (IronmanAZ – Nov. 17), and thanks for following along.
