IMWI2009


On September 7, 2008, Brooke and I traveled to Madison, WI to volunteer at the Ford Ironman Triathlon.  For the first part of the day, we were stationed at Whalen and County Road M on the bike course.  The bike is made of up two 56 mile loops through the Western part of Madison, WI.  After our duty was over on the bike course, we were stationed at state street and Lake street assisting runners during the 26.2 mile run finish.  What a blast!  We enjoyed everything about the event.  On Monday, yours truly, stood in line with about 4000 other insane people and signed up for the Iron Man race being held on September 13, 2009.  Training starts immediately.  I will be updating you from time to time on the progress.  Looking forward to finishing the race in 12 hours or less...and yes, I will get the tat.
