Since Boston I have been focused on Ironman 70.3 Kansas. That event was my first 70.3 in Lawrence, Kansas on June 9. It's now been almost 3 weeks since and I'm withing 12 weeks of the Sioux Falls Marathon where I hope to re-qualify for Boston 2014.
As I begin to up my running mileage I really miss the added components of swim and bike and look forward to getting back to all 3. I hope to complete another 70.3 this fall and hopefully register for a Full Ironman in Fall of 2014. I need to get a post updated about my experience at Kansas and I will, but I also just realized I have a full (or ultra) in each of the last 4 months of 2013: Sioux Falls in September, Dogwood Canyon 50k in October, Bass Pro in November and Rocket City in December. Sioux Falls and Rocket City will add two new states to my list, South Dakota and Alabama respectively.
In the meantime here is a really good article to keep you motivated through the training process. It also relates well with me since I am a teacher too.
