SWIM: Last year our wee lad's only goal for the swim was to make it out of the water without cramping. However, he did cramp in the last 150 yards. But, as he later reflected, at least he "made it to shore." Yes, at least he did not drown.
BIKE: Last year our hero faced a nasty headwind for more than half of the bike ride. Which meant he got a hell-of-a tailwind for the return trip. Despite ringing up once of his fastest rides ever, many other riders passed him. Repeat after me: "Pedal, Damn It"
RUN: Last year he had, in his words, a pretty slow run time. But it was 90 degrees and who the hell cared anyway, he just wanted to finish, which he did, slow jogging to the finish line so that he "would not pass out."
Our boy doesn't drown and he doesn't pass out. Sounds like a pretty good Ironman.
Good Luck on Saturday.
