| » NZ Ironman is creeping up FAST ! (21/02/2006) |
Hi all,
With only two weeks until NZ Ironman left in my New Zealand training schedule I am getting pumped! This is the time of year where I really get to put all my hard work to the test and prove to my friends, family, supporters, and of course, myself that it’s
all worth it! I can’t wait to hear the big cannon go off at 7am on Saturday the 4thMarch. I can’t wait to feel my heart thumping in anticipation, and to see all my supporters in their mops and tees. But most of all, I can’t wait to attempt to beat my previous NZ Ironman finish and cross that beloved finish line (in one piece)! That excited feeling is what it’s all about. You’ve got to love endorphins!!
Training has brought me up to speed like I have never been before. I feel confident and relaxed, ready to begin to taper now over the next couple of weeks with all the hard training behind me. With still lots to get organised (my Cervelo P3 Carbon bike to be serviced by my mates at Bike Barn, my Pro4 nutrition for the day to be put together, my Nike uniform to be printed etc) .
But it all works out in the end and before I know it, it’s RACE DAY!
Happy training!
