Perspective!

Sorry it has been awhile but my training is slowed down and trying to focus on recovery. The family is great and life is good. I came across this race report from the World Championship Ironman in Hawaii. This is a pro athlete who opens his door to see what motivates him. It is refreshing to see that this sport brings the best out of people. Hope you like the read.

Base and Recovery

So as it stands now my training has switched a bit. I has gone from 0530 pool time to 0300 feeding time. I do have to say that I love it! Seamus is settling in and Jack could never be more proud to be a big brother. Tomorrow he is one month old. Yeah that was quick. I think about how long a month takes to pass when I am waiting for a race or even a holiday. Heck Dec 1 -25th feels like a century! I can honestly say that there is nothing like having a newborn open his eyes and look right at you, deep into your eyes. I can only attempt to try and figure out what he is thinking. So just to let you know Seamus, YES, I am here for the long haul and don't worry, your big brother will stick up for you too!

I also have some news on the sponsorship front. This past year I raced for Team Aquaphor and it was fantastic. I wore their uniform with much success. On Tuesday I received word that I also was accepted as a Silver level Sponsor for BASE performance supplements. This is a company located in southern California that specializes in endurance nutrition products. The founder is one the US's top Ironman pro triathletes Chris Lieto. I began using BASE products this past season and had much success with it. I look forward to utilizing them for my off season and pre-season prep work.
