OK....Here I go again!!

I attempted this almost a year ago and got a grand total of 1 post to my blog. It was a New Years Resolution to start a blog and like all my other resolutions, if fell by the wayside. But that was then and I am getting a good head start on 2009! This was originally intended to be a journal of my training as I lead up to Ironman Canada in August of last year....so lets fast forward a year and start again for Ironman Canada 2009.
I will be writing more about my plans and goals for the remainder of this year and 2009 in upcoming posts. But tomorrow is the first day of the Slowtwitch 100/100 Challenge....and I love a good challenge and the motivation it gives me to keep going. The Challenge is to run 100 times in 100 days...and a run is defined as at least 30 mins of running...no race walking, jumping jacks, jazzerize....just plain old fashioned running!! You are allowed to run on a Treadmill....and I have one next to my office at work so my excuses not to get this done are few. You can skip a day and double or triple but my plan is one run every day for 100 days. Getting warmed up for this I am coming off 24 consecutive days of running so I AM READY. I have a couple more challenges that will focus on some core strengthening that i will post about soon.
18km run at a bright and sunny 28 below today with some swim drills before at the Leisure Center. Bring on the 100/100 Challenge!
