Hey, thanks for this post. I just got divorced a few months ago (not my desire), and I sure have been grateful for the bike. I also turned 40 at the same time. Now I have a friend (50!) who did her first Ironman last year, and she wants me to train for 2007 with her! I think that is out of my league for this year, but I am hoping to be fitter and stronger at 50 than I am now. Thanks for mentioning becoming a triathlete at 42.
