Quick Catch Up....prelude to THE JOURNEY

Right so to get you up to speed on my Journey to Ironman 70.3 South Africa! I was 120kg, smoked 30 a day and lived in the passed about my fitness where i was once 93kg lean! About a month before my 29th Birthday i made the decision to Quit Smoking! (and i am still smoke free and loving it). Then i saved some money and got my "Beast", my entry level mountain bike that i use to potter around Northern Farms in Jhb, suddenly without realizing it i was getting fitter and loving life again! No more slob on the couch syndrome! So i made a promise and a challenge to myself that come hell or high water i would enter the Ironman 70.3 South Africa in Buffalo City! Why you ask? Simple answer....because i know i can!!! So keep following this blog as i post weekly my training progress, tips i come across and anything else i find useful or funny!!!
