Congrats!

Congratulations go out to John Kusek, an athlete of mine, who in his first Ironman attempt, finished in 14:50. I know how hard he has worked over the past year to accomplish this goal. Way to go John, you set a goal, and achieved it, congrats!

John is my first athlete to compete at the Iron distance. While watching the race and following John, I felt the same emotions yesterday as I did when I competed in Wisconsin. It truely is as rewarding to coach a successful athlete as it is to be one! Great job!

I also did some testing in a run for Kona, and had a pretty good workout. I'll run wearing a latex glove in Kona......

All for now
