Florida Ironman November 5th, 2011- FIRST ONE!!
I think the day that my Ironman journey started was last November in 2010, when I registered for my first Florida Ironman. The months after, I was seriously contemplating on what the heck I had done, did I really think that I could do an Ironman?? I had just started swimming last October…so I knew I had a looooong way to go before I could swim 2.4 miles…in the Gulf of Mexico no less!
I am sure that…

Remind yourself frequently, especially before your key “A” race, that the sun will shine the next day regardless of your placing in the age group. Have fun out there on the course, keep it loose and remind yourself of why you race and your performance will reflect your attitude.

Benefits of 3-day fast.
It's really not that bad after the first two waves of hunger day 1.
1 - Quick Positive willpower win.
especially necessary as I am still unable to train.
2 - Cleanse systems. (only detox tea w/ honey in the am,)
3 - Strengthen immune system.
The body spends much energy operating all systems regularly. The energy normally spent on the digestive systems etc. goes toward rebuilding other systems including the immune system.
(I forget where I learned this. But it's valid.)
4 - Shrink stomach.
(Will be full more quickly afterwards.)
5 - Stem the tide.
As I have not been eating quite properly AND not training, this will 'etch-a-sketch' my intake of late and allow for a fresh start of intake.
6 - Time + $ found.
It's pretty enlightening when you realize how much time and $ we spend around food and eating. :)
Have fun A Dragonfly.
Send my best to Rhonda. For real.
