Ironman Lake Placid 2011!!!!

I have been MIA from the blogging world but still ticking away at Ironman training. IM Louisville is in just a little over 4 weeks away! I am starting to get more excited as I am getting stronger in my long workouts. I am not as prepared as I was last year for IM Wisconsin but I know I am getting in the key workouts and how important mental perseverance is in this race. So in the past few weeks I have raced a really slow sprint tri, had a great non-wetsuit 3-mile open water swim and signed up for IM Lake Placid. What a challenge that was to get into the race. It involved waking up at 3:30am to drive over to wait in line until 1:30pm when we finally made it to registration. I was more exhausted after that than after any long workout. So another year of IM training. I am so excited and this time Luke will be joining me again in the journey!
