Imaz 2008

[Offthegrid]

Wish I could do it with you, but I'm not going to be there yet. Maybe 2009.

I believe you'd have to register the morning after IMAZ in 2007.

I wouldn't let the run hold you back -- you're a strong swimmer and cyclist. You can walk the marathon, ya' know.

Yea, since we have to register in April 2007... I have been pushing myself on upping my miles to see if I can get my running back together. BUT if he opts for another IM... ???? I guess I need to get with him on what he wants to do.

Honestly, I am probably not ready for an IM in 2008. I wish I had an Olympic and HIM under my belt before doing it. If I do sign up for 2007, I will try to do both in 2007.

I do have to say this though, I love the training part... and the racing part makes my stomach turn. But I have to race, or I am not motivated to train! HA! So, I figure if I am going to train, why not shoot for the IM, vs. a Sprint?

And yea... I can walk the marathon, and I do not expect to run the entire marathon... but I want to train like I will run the marathon. The thought of walking for 6 hours (my walking pace), seems a bit like torture. I don't want my IM to be torture.

For me... and this is JUST for me... my goal is to train for a tri to run the run portion. Thus, I took a whole season off of tri's because I couldn't run. That's just my goal... but I always encourage others and tell them that they can walk the run if they can't run.

Blah... blah... blah... I can write a lot... Thanks for reading!
