My Road to become an IRONMAN

Bragging Rights:

I have always enjoyed a challenge and physical activity. I grew up a river rat, swimming in the Ohio River. My love for running began back in high school. I ran my 1st half marathon in the spring of 2002, the 500 Festival Mini-Marathon with basically no training. I enjoyed it but life just kind of got in the way of my love for competing. In 2010 I decided it was time to get back to what I love and I ran the Kentucky Derby Mini-Marathon. I was not happy with my time, so I bought an entry into the 500 Festival Mini-Marathon the following Saturday! For me, two mini-marathons in 7 days was a little crazy, but I succeeded! In 2011 I set a goal to become an IRONMAN....it didn't happen, but I didn't give up. In 2012 I was able to run a marathon and completed two sprint triathlons and I am hooked! I will become an IRONMAN this year!
