So my first Ironman event was a success. I wanted to finish Ironman New Orleans (2-52-13.1) in under 6 hours and I ended up coming in at 5:30:15 which made me very happy. I was bummed about the swim being replaced by a run but once we all saw the water conditions we were happy to not be in that water… It was bad… I didn’t feel like I was working super hard until mile 7 of the half marathon. What I am most proud of is my recovery time. I woke up the next morning feeling really good. I wanted to run but I am forcing myself to take 2 days off. I have the Gulf Coast 70.3 Half Ironman on May 12th. Looking forward to that…
