It's really funny when customers come in and I tell them I'm racing. I guess it must be obvious my lack of training...
Or maybe it's my alarming amount of "adipose tissue" that I seem to be carrying around lately.... sigh...

Denise you're as tough as nails!! You might not have had an ideal year but you're still going to kick it!! You might not fit into the narrow ideal of what an Ironman triathlete looks like, but never forget that you are one. You've proven it before and you'll do it again. As far as I'm concerned you're one of the toughest I know and I know a lot of triathletes!!

Denise,
You can do this! Watch your video from 2006 again...it is awesome and awe-inspiring.
You know so much on race day is mental. You have mental strength. After living thru last year, you know what to expect and can prepare your mind to deal with it.
You are ready; you have done all the 'benchmarks': 100+ ride; 15 mile run; long swim. Now just keep your mental state in check. Trust me, I am working on this too!
Confidence!

When is race day? I have to make sure to send lots of butterflies that day - not that you need them, but they are a nice reminder of what you can do, aren't they?
And right now a few of those butterflies are headed there to remind you of your inner strength. You are an iron woman!!
Hugs and butterflies,
~T~The butterflies are within you.
