My Journey Begins

I started running a few years ago with the training most people have done "Couch to 5k".  I remember my first race...I was so nervous and just hoping I would be able to finish my first 5k race.  I trained and finished the race.  After that I was hooked.  I continued doing more 5k races which lead to 10k races.  I then decided to go for the BIG one...a Marathon.  I did some research on which one to run and decided to run the Rock n Roll San Diego Marathon in June 2010.
 

It wasn't by best race, but I finally ran and completed my first Marathon!  I remember crossing the finish line and saying to myself, "I will never do that again".  I then went back to San Diego in 2012, ran the half-marathon and did much better.

After finishing that race and other half marathons, I needed something more...I wanted to complete a half ironman (70.3).  I then talked with a Triathlon coach and I've decided to train and complete a Full Ironman (140.6) next year, 2013.  And so the ironman journey begins...
