This is my 6th Summer of racing triathlon. I have now completed 3 Ironmans under my belt, Florida 2009, Coeur d'Alene 2010, and most recently Ironman Wisconsin on 9/11/11. I love my family and I love my sport and everything they have both done for me.

Ironman Louisville

Wow...I'm sitting here with Matt at the swim start of Ironman Louisville less than an hour before race time. Ironman gives normal people a chance to do an amazing thing and be a rockstar for a day. I'm extremely happy to be here with Matt to support him in his debut ironman. He came to watch me in Coeur d'Alene and as I recall was the first person I saw when I came out of the finishing area. I already have an appreciation for those who support an ironman and the race hasn't started yet. 12 or so hours from now I'm sure I'll have an even bigger appreciation. Ironman is so cool and so amazing and I love it. The buzz around transition, the quiet focus, the adrenaline, the beautiful bodies, and let's not forget the voice of Ironman. All of those things make Ironman what it is...So kick some ass Matt and you will be an Ironman tonight!!
