Ironman Returns

Went to Phoenix yesterday to watch Ironman Arizona. My college triathlon buddy, Chris Torregino, was there as a spectator cheering on his wife, Angie, in her first Ironman. It was great to see Chris after so many years - he looks great and is still as sweet as can be - and Angie had a great race.

Particularly inspiring was an amazing young man named Rudy Garcia:

The experience was so inspiring, I signed up for Ironman Arizona 2010 today. My goals are:

Finish Ironman Arizona 2010 under 12 hours 30 minutes (my 2007 time).

Finish Ironman Arizona 2011 in around 10 hours and qualify for Kona.

Race Kona in 2012.
