Kelly doesn't hesitate at the sound of the alarm. 5:15 a.m. - GET YOUR *SS UP - Let's go sign up for Ironman.
Taking our usual parking spot at Machinery Row bike shop, we entered the line of roughly 75 volunteers waiting to spend some serious cash.
2 people in front of us appeared our new friend John - Mr. "I'm not getting there until 8 a.m.". It was 6 a.m. and we only waited for 1 hour.
The sign up lined progressed. We showed our credentials (ID's), paid our ridiculous amount of money, booked a hotel. Bam - here we come IM 2010.
John, our new friend, bought us coffee for insisting he arrive early to sign up - we were done with the entire process at 8:30 a.m.
Kelly and I will approach this slow and steady - training will not begin until January 1, 2010. Until then we will eat cookies, drink latte's and rest on the couch. Not entirely, but why rush into it?
