Sooo, I'm sure that you know that I had a baby about 3 months ago. He is the most adorable little munchkin and I love being a mom and being on maternity leave. That being said, I still find myself getting really bored and looking for something to motivate myself to get back into shape. Sooooo.. when I heard that Ironman Canada did not sell out for the first time and that there would be a few hundred extra spots up for grabs at an online site.. I thought.."Hmmmmmm.. why not?" I called up my friend Smak and convinced her to try and get a spot as well. Well, the race sold out in a matter of minutes and as luck would have it, we were BOTH able to get spots! And a few minutes later.. I started panicking with the realization of what I had done.. hehe.
I mean, I just had a baby so my body is definitely outta shape and being a mom is a 24/7 job so I have to do all my training when Evan is asleep.. Oh, the list could go on why I will fail miserably... BUT, then I think, that's why it's such an appealing challenge. That's WHY I want to do it.
So I basically have 11 months to get this post-partem body ready to complete an Ironman. Nuff said. It starts now.
Oh, and here's a little taste of why I love this sport so much. Check out the link.

You are a machine, Delia.
I have no doubt you can do it.
But holy shit, I admire you.
