Ummm, last year turned out ok. No major crashes and I didn't drown (or maybe I did and haven't realized it yet). My training took a bit of a nose dive after the half ironman I did. After swimming sidestroke for a mile and running out of water on the bike - I fell apart... I still finished the stupid thing, but I was thinking of putting everything on eBay the next day.
Then Chris and Liz came out for a little pre-Ironman training and a little beer drinking before shutting it down for the lead up to Kona. They taught me about salt tabs (wow - how did I survive without these) and leading with your armpit when you swim - or at least, that's how it makes sense to me. Swimming is one of those zen things. Kinda like breathing through your eyeball - I don't understand that either...
Since it's December and I don't have anything planned until June, I can take it easy, work on my swim stroke and build my knees up before putting on heavier miles. New road bike and some shiny new motivation for this year!
