Gearing up to gear up for Ironman Arizona 2009, there are many to-do's just to begin the training. First of all, is IM AZ even going to be held in April, or, will it be moved to the Fall as per the rumor mill? If it is moved to the fall, will there be a replacement in April so that I can do it in conjunction with my fortieth birthday?
Secondly, I have to buy a new bike -- one designed for the tri. I have decided on the QR Seduza...I think. I just need to make up my mind to plunk down the cash.
Next, it may be important to learn to swim. I don't mean, learn to not drown, I mean learn a halfway efficient technique to not get DQ'ed on the swim. I have swum the 1.2 mile distance of a half, but I have done it very slowly. A swim coach should be able to help. The tweaking from flailing to gliding begins August 13.

Just came accross your blog.
Congratulations on your decision to document this year. I ran the Army Ten-Miler on my 40th and am prepping for the Nation's Triathlon this coming September. I wish I'd documented my 39th year.
Se vuoi aiuto con l'italiano, fammi sapere!
Buon lavoro e buona fortuna!
