Ironman Panama: Its Getting Real/The Countdown Begins
Posted on Jan 23, 2012 under Raves | Comments are offIt’s all started feeling very real lately: Panama IM that is. Flights and accommodations have been booked for a while, but lately I’ve starting finding myself thinking about what to pack, how and when to pack. Wave start times have been announced and more vicerally my training during this last build cycle (which ends this week sometime) has been intense! I’ve been loving the intensity, but I’ve learned to look forward to, and take full advantage of my rest days. 🙂
Today it’s 19 days to the race and I’m feeling good. My nutrition is dialed, my equipment is behaving itself, my body is healed and uninjured and I’m in full-on risk avoidance mode (it it’s not helping me toward my goal and has even a remote chance of causing a race-limiting injury, I don’t do it). Both eyes, mind, spirit (and hopefully hands will be) on the prize.
I’m going to attempt to write a daily (or near daily) ramp-up blog post here for the next 21 days as I do my final ramp up. I’m going to take my GoPro camera (a chrismas gift from Kim) and so I’ll shoot some training videos, scenery videos while I’m there and try posting them here.
This is gonna be fun! Can’t wait 😉
