Maximus is in!

My madness is infectious for my brother Del has said he'll do the Iron Man too. YAY! This is brilliant news, I wont be training and competing on my lonesome. He is the perfect training companion. He is motivated, a fighter, endures the toughest pain and will kick my arse when I am feeling lazy. He knows how to see the positive in all things incomprehensible,and this will be invaluable when I feel I cant go on any more.
This also means that I now HAVE to apply and that I will be attempting this muscle tearing event. If he'd not been so enthusiastic I would have a reason to run from the click here to register button as fast as possible. But now we are both in agreement It will be worth a shot. Both of us will be in the "veterans are us" category, but hey.. If we don't try we'll never know just what we are truly capable of. And  If  I can train long and hard enough to compete and complete someone has to come last and I'll happily take that role.

July the 22nd 2012. I've got the date firmly into my mind, exactly 9 months and 24 days to go. 

Monday 3rd October I'm visiting Del to cycle some miles and to click the IronMan register button. It will be the scariest click ever. 

Ciao for now
