Subject: Bucket List
Hello.

Not a first timer, but been out of the tri game so long I may as well be.

I'm turning 40 this year, so I decided it's time to get the Ironman off my bucket list. I got up to as high as a 1/2, but that was when I was 17. I stopped racing altogether when I was 18. I have been active...played many years of competitive soccer at a high level, and have continued to pursue a passion for mountain biking since about '96.

Married, two great kids (14 & 11), and a demanding career that drives me insane. I'm sure this is a common story here...hope so...I'll be asking questions!

I started a training plan in October, and have for the most part been able to stick w/ it. The biggest challenge, now, is teaching my body that swimming doesn't altogether suck. It's still not listening...oh well. :D

I found this website and am going to make good use of it...

~Mike.

Hi Mike, welcome to BT and back to triathlon!

Do check out our mentor groups--they're really great for support, accountability, resources, etc.

the http://www.swimsmooth.com site has a lot of good stuff about making the swim suck less ... and sucking less at the swim. Good luck!

It has been a bucket list item for years...something to do before I'm 25. Okay, maybe I'll push that to 30. Okay, maybe I'll let it go altogether.
