Never done that before

It was a great weekend here in Madison. The sun was shining and all the cards aligned for a perfect workout weekend. Saturday was a nice 10 mile run, and Sunday was an hour in the pool followed by 3 hours on the bike (50 miles).
I guess in some ways I’m lucky having never done an Ironman before. For one, I can read all I want, but I really have no idea what’s in store for me. I don’t have war stories of how much it hurt at this mile, or how warm/cold/windy it was that one year that made life miserable.
Instead, I have these little milestones and tiny victories. 50 miles? No big deal if you’ve done 112. But for me, that’s the farthest I’ve ever gone on a bike by far. I did it, and that makes me happy and keeps me going. See, I’ll get to experience that a lot this summer, always something new, always something I’ve never done before, and always proving to myself that I can do it.
