Wow! I'm honored and privileged to have have been selected to train with Pacific Swim Bike Run for the Rev 3 Cedar Point full Ironman event. This is going to be an amazing and game changing year for me, no doubt about it.
Tonight was Pacific's Happy Hour party kicking-off 2013. What a blast! It was cool to meet so many new and like minded people. The beer, wine and food was flowing while some big named sponsors demoed and gave away free products! (hey wait a minute - didn't Pacific publish a recent article regarding "Alcohol and its effects on athletes"? LOL - we'll leave that one alone right now... :)
It's becoming clear that the Pacific team, and their extended network of friends and family, consists of a highly supportive group that puts their athletes front and center. I also finally got a chance to explore the facility to see where I will be transformed over the next 8 months. This is the kind of triathlete playground that you never have to leave. All the gym equipment an endurance athlete needs, along with a full nutrition bar and a huge retail store.
Training starts this Saturday with Jason. Looking forward to keeping everyone apprised of my progress. Let the journey begin!!
