I'm off to the Ironman 70.3 World Championships!

[Bryancd]

Well gang, I leave this morning for Clearwater, Florida where on Saturday I will be competing in the Ironman 70.3 World Championship race. This is a half Ironman distance race series, 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike, 13.1 mile run which add up to 70.3 miles total, which you qualify for at races during the season. Last year as many of you know, I competed at the Ironman World Championships in Kona, Hawaii and this year decided to try half distance for fun and a break from the full. The race is Saturday morning. I'll be checking in from Florida and will keep you guys updated on my adventure. :)

Amazing Bryan. Have a blast!

You truly are Ironman.

Good luck Bryan!  I'm just envious of your ability to travel to all these places all the time.

My job has a lot of time flexibilty as I can work remotely from wherever I am. Being 100% commission based compensation means I call my own shots! My firm is actually very supportive of my racing, they even sponsored me last year. :)

Thanks everybody! It's Thursday morning. The weather is great, the beach is beautiful, white sand, and the water a comfy 70 degrees. I sawm the entire 1.2 mile course in my wet suit, felt smooth and good. Picked up my bike and race packet and I am now back at the hotel putting my bike together with my race wheels. I'm going to do a short hour ride later as well as driving he entire 56 mile bike course and run course so I know what to expect. 1400 athletes from around the world are ere, the best of the best! The atmosphere is awesome! More later!
