@emmapapanicolaou: đš WEEK ONE of our 28-week Ironman training block đš We decided on the Dallas half Ironman because thatâs where JM was born, so it feels like a pretty full-circle place to attempt something that currently feels absolutely insane. đ€ Posting this mostly so I canât quietly quit when training gets hard đ I genuinely never thought Iâd be saying âIâm training for an Ironman.â A few months ago I could barely run a mile, and now somehow Iâm swimming, biking, running and voluntarily waking up early to suffer?? Terrified. Excited. Questioning my life choices. But mostly excited. đșđ A little reminder that youâre never ânot athletic enough,â too old, too inexperienced, or too far behind to start something new. You can literally decide one day to do something that scares the shit out of you and figure it out along the way. So hereâs to 29 weeks of becoming someone I didnât even know I could be. đ„č Dallas half Ironman⊠see you in 29 weeks. Hopefully. đ
