Blog Start

This is the first time that I have ever had a blog, but I wanted to start something so that everyone who is interested in following my progress towards my ironman can have the opportunity to see what I have been doing.

This weekend marked the 4th straight weeknd with a ride greater than 40 miles.  The ride this week was from my house in Madison to the house in Hazel Green that I grew up in.  It had pretty good rolling hills and my legs were killing me after I was done, but that had a little to do with my run on Friday.  I did 6 miles up and down the hills of Eastview.  As a warm up and cool down for the run, I did swims of 2700 yards and 1500 yards.

The training is going great so far and I look forward to sharing my training with everyone who is interested.  Please go check out my website where I am talking about what I am doing at

I will focus on keeping this up to date on a weekly basis.
