Barring any last minute disasters it looks like I'll be making it to the start line with a realistic chance of finishing and this in itself feels like an achievement at the moment. Despite a few injury setbacks the training has gone pretty well - I've averaged close to 10 hrs per week during the 30-week training programme. Way less than a competitive Ironman athlete but enough I hope to get me round in a respectable time and to enjoy the experience. I guess I'll find out tomorrow! My weight loss has also gone well, this morning I was 188 pounds from a high of 225 pounds early last year. A few pounds higher than the 185 pounds I'd targeted as my race weight but low enough to not be too much of a limiter.
Good luck to my fellow Outlaws. I leave you with one of the many motivational videos I've been firing up this morning!
Have a great day Rob. Hope it goes well for you and looking forward to hearing about the experience.
