Ironman Sherpa Riding

116 miles
10,800 feet of climbing
104 degrees in parts
70+% humidity
12 bottles of fluids that's a bottle every 10 miles
2 flats not mine his
One faulty back break 60 miles in - his

One step closer to Kona for my partner - the Kona bike ride will not be this hard and that's the point of the ride.

Big congrats to James at www.jameswalshracing.com he got engaged over the weekend. Two Ultra Running, Dog loving people.

Also huge congrats to Javier Gomez on his 70.3 World Championship victory. I am lucky enough to visit Javi in his home in Spain, his Spring training grounds in the Canary Islands and was there when he took Silver in London. He is obviously highly talented but he is also very gracious. He respects those who have come before him.

It's a good life.....
Dave
