First, allow me to apologize to anyone who spent an hour last Saturday listening to a radio broadcast that, in the end, did NOT include the interview of yours' truly. After learning how to record streaming audio, arranging things around the broadcast, and then taping the entire hour, it became apparent that interview will be another day. My wife pointed out that perhaps they recorded two week's worth of tape to account for the holiday weekend.
For the sake of convenience, I will be recording the interview and will post it here. That way, only my time is spent waiting in the event it isn't on THIS week's broadcast.
It's been a great month of training, and I am nearly complete with the mileage for the Evotri Ironman Challenge. I have completed about three times the needed swim yardage, finished 115 miles on the bike with last night's workout, and have about three miles left to run.
I might try to complete a second Ironman in the remaining days of December. This is because I am determined to complete the full B-Fit B-Day challenge. That means 6600 yards swimming, 40 miles biking, and 10 miles running. At that point, I may as well tack on another 70 miles on the bike, and finish the marathon.
I'm trying to figure out a way to get good footage of the event and put together a nice video to kick off 2009. However, I'm better at finishing races than actually documenting them. If I get around to it, I have some pretty neat ideas. We'll see.
In case I don't post in the next couple days, have a great holiday break. Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah, or whatever applies best. Whatever that is, enjoy your time with family, take a break from the strict discipline of diet and training, and recharge your batteries for the coming new year.
