Summer 2010 - Secret Revealed to family & friends

During the holidays I initially kept everything quiet from my family. I was unsure of myself and if I told them what I had entered into, they would have questioned my sanity, I guessed. I was completely sane. The Road To Ironman would be a tough one.

Robert F. Kennedy once said "There are those who look at things the way they are, and ask why. I dream of things that never were, and ask why not.

That was me. I believed that by enrolling in Ironman I was says why not.

The summer with the in-laws cam and I shared my secret with one or two family members and asked them not to tell my wife or children. Days passed and I thought that if enough people knew that I would take part in Ironman, there would be no going back. My secret was revealed.

I spent the next few weeks relaxing and thinking about the event but other than that I did not start any preparation as I was on holidays. The most important thing was that my place was booked.
