It was officially announced today that the IronMan series will begin hosting an annual event in St. George, Utah. It begins in May of 2010. There is no way I would do it that soon...but should I consider 2011? That gives me just over 2 years. I plan on running (jogging) 3 marathons this year. Then I could start doing the swimming which shouldn't be too hard since I grew up a swimmer, but I haven't really swam in 10 years. I would also need to start the biking, which I have never done.
It's only:
2.4 mile swim
112 mile bike ride
26.2 mile run........How hard could it be?

It would be a huge commitment and the time it would take to train may be too much...but what an accomplishment.
