First 24 Hours.

I am extremely exited, I am oficially training for an IronMan competition.  Wow!!  Yesterday I did a 45 minute bike ride on the trainer.  It was hot and sweet was flowing like I have not seen in a long time.  I felt pretty good this morning and went for a 5:00 run training with the kids who are also training for their respective events.  I tried to run at the track but was very hard on my knees so I decided to walk at a faster pace.  I have planned to swim today but the pool was closed this morning.  I will try again after work and if not I will try anothe bike run just to do something.  As of this afteernoon coach K agreed to train me for the event.  Thank God.  I will have no problem with the training and I will bust my but to finish whatever he throws at me but my nutrition will be a challenge.  I am open to change but I have a very sweet tooth and I eat very litlle viriety of food so loosing weight which is a first priority will take some doing.  I will try my best but if I fail at that I will have to train just that much harder.  Tomorrow I am going to the Dr. to try and get rid a heart blocker I take for my blood pressure.  It prevents my heart from speeding up so it prevents me from doing certain intensity of workouts.  i hae that feeling but I rather talk to him instead of leaving that pill on my own and creating something worse.  I am almost sure he is going to want to deal the pill for at least 20-30 pounds which I have no problem with but he will want to keep me on it untill I loose the weight.  I will try to reason with him and if that does not work I will try to bribe him, and if that does not work I will tell him that if cancer did not kill me I doubt that doing excersice will.  At the end I will do what he tells me he is a great guy and I know he will make sure I am safe and finish the Ironman at the same time.

Today's stats 260.2lbs
Blood Pressure.  lets just say high!!!
