Here it starts...

After only doing 3 triathlons (two sprints and one Olympic) in 2007, I bit the bullet and signed up for a half-iron man that will take place in August 2008. I am a little nervous for two reaons: 1) I am still unable to visualize myself completing the whole thing (1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike, 13.1 mile run); 2)what if after I complete this dang thing, it plants the seed of doing a full-ironman in my head?

That is just crazy talk.

So here begins my journey. Wish me luck.
