Ten months ago I signed up both Mike and myself for Ironman Louisville (aka IMKY). Starting soon after I began my training with Mike’s guidance – getting in more, and more quality, training than ever before. A week ago it was time, and we travelled out to Kentucky for the big day. Vineman 70.3 had…

I needed a hott date, and I got one. Rode up to Santa Barbara with Mike. Sure, we missed one turn, and it added about 8.5 miles. But it was a great day, and ended with yummy food in Santa Barbara, a train ride home, and then… yes, more yummy food. Mmm tuna melt! Totals:…
