What have I done?

Okay, so today I officially registered for the Cali 70.3 HIM (Half Ironman) triathlon. Eeeek! It's starting to sink in as I type, but probably won't fully sink in until I nail down my training program and start my first day of training. And I "think" I know what I've gotten myself into...2 workouts/day on top of organizing a 5K run/2 mi walk with my sister AND working 40+ hours/week. Oh boy! Giddyup, here we go!

And so it begins!

Hi everyone and welcome to my blog! This is going to be the story of my journey to train and complete a Half Ironman/70.3 mile distance triathlon.  For those of you unfamiliar with a 70.3 tri, let me break it down for you. It starts with a 1.2 mile swim, followed by a 56 mile bike ride and finishes with a 13.1 mile run! It's the Ironman 70.3 California and race date is 3.31.12. Stay tuned because I know this will be one crazy journey!
