Triathlon things you said you would never do or never do again but did anyway
I have a very long list of hypocritical "I will never..." and these are the first few that popped into my head.
- I will never do an Ironman. I have done three, have a fourth in four weeks, a fifth nine weeks after that, plus six and seven next year.
- I will never train for an Ironman during the awful Texas summer heat. I held out on that one for awhile but I'm doing IMCan on Aug. 25th and plan on doing IMCdA and IMMT next year.
- I will never do IMCdA because I'm not swimming in sub-60 degree water. I'm registered for IMCdA for 2014. I'm hoping moving the date to the last week in June will mean water temps above 60.
- I will never pee on the bike. I can no longer be bothered to stop 3-4 times in 112 miles. It's a race dammit!
I think the one "never" I will hold myself to is I will never do a race at altitude. I know that's going to have physiological effects on me that I don't want to deal with. No IM Tahoe in my future.
