Took it pretty easy this week as this was my last “easy” week for the next 9 months. Tomorrow is the official beginning of Ironman training. I start a 13-week Training Peaks program coached by Gale Bernhardt. Yesterday I bought a three-month family membership to the local community center in order to have pool access. Tuesday will be my first swim in nearly four months.
I am excited and anxious. My first triathlon is only two months away and I know how quickly that will be here. It’s good to have something to train towards again. I feel good about the year ahead, but I also know how much hard work, time, and sacrifice I have before me. I just keep reminding myself what it will mean to me when I hear, “Karl Miller, you are an Ironman!”
Kia Kaha!
