Omaha Ironman 70.3 ✅. I am so grateful for a body that kept going even when the hills never stopped on the bike. I dealt with my chain dropping twice which was a first for me during a race. Easy fix though so I’ll take it. We hit mile 41 on the bike and I wasn’t sure I could make it up! The run was HOT. There really wasn’t any shade. My neuroma in my foot started acting up and the self talk had to start immediately. “forward is a pace. Must keep going! I can do hard things.” I knew at that point that I couldn’t push my pace too hard to prevent the burnout. Having my boys and husband there cheering me on was the best! I wanted to make them proud! All in all, I would probably suffer again through the hills 🤣.
