ScottCM Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Agreed, even though my training is nowhere compared to last year I'm done. I'm SOOO ready for the break afterwards

Shaunie_g Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 My first full coming up and Im very very nervous
Chris_ Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Someone mentioned one of those sayings to me the other day - I think we were talking about long runs, anyway it was JOMO - like FOMO (fear of missing out), but this time its JOY of missing out! I won't lie, right now, I'm having JOMO with ironman. When we go ride the Cradle on weekends and are busy packing up, its so easy to spot the guys busy restocking and heading out for their second/third lap and I know they're only half way through a 160km or so ordeal. Blazing heat, wind, boredom, etc etc. On the day I'm sure I'll feel bleak watching it on TV, but right now I'm pretty happy missing out this year.

Am i ready? i sure as hellhope so, i know that a sufferfest is inevitable . i want to have a break on weekends Last year i saw a woman holding up a board say "104.6 till i get my husband back!!" I think this time of the year the word "Ironman" becomes a curse word in many a household.
KnavishStream Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 I'm gatvol of the training, wish it was this weekend already. Wow me too! long efforts on the weekends are becoming a chore - tempted to start doing shorter rides and runs
Shaunie_g Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 I'm gatvol of the training, wish it was this weekend already.Dave you and I are usually on zwift the same times in the evenings. What ever happens it'll be a long day and it'll all be worth it at the finish line
Carmichael Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 How many hours per week are you guys punching now?
_David_ Posted March 12, 2019 Author Posted March 12, 2019 Dave you and I are usually on zwift the same times in the evenings. What ever happens it'll be a long day and it'll all be worth it at the finish line There's nothing like running down that red carpet to the sound of "YOU ARE AN IRONMAN!"
_David_ Posted March 12, 2019 Author Posted March 12, 2019 How many hours per week are you guys punching now? Last week was a recovery week for me but usually somewhere between 11 - 13 hrs
