Yesterday I was able to to do all three events of a very short triathlon before, during and after some business meetings. I went to the gym early and increased my swim distance from 100 to 200 yards. Just 4,024 yards to go for an Ironman!
After that I drove to NYC and went to a business meeting that ended on time and gave me the chance to ride 18miles before dinner--from 29th St up to the base of the George Washington Bridge and back. Just 94 more miles for the Ironman bike.
After dinner the night was beautiful so I ran 4 miles along the Hudson. Just 22.2 more and I am done with the Ironman run.
So I do have more training to get done. But it's a start! Over time, I hope to do a standard distance triathlon in a day, then all at once: 1k, 40k, 10k.
Same with the half Ironman maybe a year from now, or more. Then the Ironman.
