Ironman Coeur d'Alene 2008

That time is almost here. Only 9 weeks to go before Ironman Coeur d'Alene. Hard to believe that I have been in training mode for over 11 weeks now. It seems like I just started yesterday. With the Big Sur Marathon in a week and a short triathlon in May, preparation is well on its way with long rides and runs ahead. My personal goal for IMCDA is under 13 hours. That would be a 2.5-hour improvement from IM Arizona last year. Speaking of that... I am glad that I did not do Arizona in April this year. High winds and high heat (over 95 degrees) constituted a 20% drop out rate, third largest in Ironman history. Hopefully the Ironman in Arizona in November will be much cooler. IMCDA will be an awesome venue and I am looking forward to it. I will keep you posted.
