Subject: RE: just completed home grown full IMVery inspirational! I've dreamed of doing the original Ironman on Oahu someday, probably DIY as I don't think the race exists anymore. Makes me think it might be doable. Just not sure about the bike course--maybe it's all freeway by now. Having done a few DIY marathons (when I couldn't make the real race ) and a solo 60 km run just to see if I could run to the ocean from where I lived, it's nice to find someone else who gets it that what really matters is taking the challenge and pushing one's limits, not the announcer or medal or tattoo. |
