I was 235lb and a couch potato. I got off the couch. I swam, I biked, I ran. And in 2009 I achieved my goal: I completed an Ironman - 3800m swim, 180k bike, and a full 42.2k marathon, in 17 hours or less. This blog documents my journey, and beyond.

Ironman Tattoo
Why?
I'm proud as hell that I did it
I want to pressure myself to live up to it. I won't ever be the fat guy who people say "YOU did IRONMAN!?". If I'm not living up to it, I want to embarrass myself into doing better! Take that, future self.
I'm not really a tattoo guy, so I went with the simple M-dot without any fanfare or flair.

Nice - I finally got my drawing back and will be getting coloured on Sunday. I am super excited!
Sweet looking Ironman tat!
Now time to live up to it, and do some more ironmans! ;-)
