Can't believe it, but it is so. Less than 4 moths to the Lake Placid Ironman start gun. Long time, no write. I'll keep it brief. Last two months are very fuzzy, February included many hours of work and a decent dose of workouts, a trip to Denmark. Lame-o. Worked like 12 hours a day. May as well have been in New Haven... just staring at a computer screen debugging software. :-( I got back to the States and read in the Projo that there apparently were 6 days of riots in Copenhagen while I was there. Had no idea!
March... Beware the Ides of March, and the revenge of lingering winter colds. Was sick for three weeks with chest fever, Bronchitis, flu-like misery and then a sinus infection. Had to scratch from this year's New England Master's Swim Championships this very weekend. Have been on the bike a bit since I couldn't get in the pool and running was out of the question for two of those three weeks. Well, time to rebuild and get in game shape here.
Baseball season is starting so that is always a good thing. Nice distraction....
Out, MW

Monday July 23rd, 2007, I was fortunate enough to click my mouse at the right time and gain entry into North America's oldest Ironman Distance Triathlon, Ironman Lake Placid. My blog covers my year in preparation for the event. I am considered an Age Group Athlete. I am the father of 3 young children, 6yrs., 4yrs. and 1yr old. Enjoy the madness with me and the laughs, challenges and general insanity that is my life. Meet my training partners, coaches and other personae dramatis in the day to day of an Ironman in training. Also, come to my web site buildinganironman.com.
