Raleigh Ironman 70.3 This Weekend
Almost 5 years sober and so grateful for SR even though I haven't been here in ages!! My husband is driving me from Atlanta to Raleigh for an Ironman event that I will be doing this weekend. Life is so much better sober then drink!!

that's awesome! How was it? And what made you know you were ready to move up to that distance? I started doing sprint tri's two years ago. I'm sidelined temporarily from it - I had one scheduled his weekend and my first century ride I three weeks - dealing with some health issues though. I'm determined to get back to it and get some redemption - and I wonder if/when I'll tackle longer distances between working full time and two active kids.
So I have done 2 70.3 distances in the past. This one was the hardest and I DNQ in the swim. The first half a mile was awesome!! The last half was so choppy and windy they pulled 32 people from the swim. I was able to finish but my time blew! That is okay because the event is just the reward for my training. I have an Olympic in 3 weeks and am looking at another 70.3 later in the season. Just not IM branded they are expensive!
