I've always wanted to finish an ironman and this year I've finally had the opportunity to train for one. Unfortunately going to an official ironman races is a huge pain in the ass. The timing doesn't work out (I need to do this before restarting clinic rotations in my residency, i.e. July 2016), they would take tons of time in travel (I've got a 14 month old at home) and they are expensive ($1300 registration fee!). So I've decided to set up my own race, the SOLOMAN.

Day 57

Workout:
1.  800 meter Time Trail swim

2. Easy 5k row

Results:
1. 18m9s
2. N/A

Notes:
Honestly, I have no idea if this was any good.  I've never swam this distance specifically and there are no references for 800m swims in a 75 foot pool.  Felt good though.

Other News:
This month's issue of Outside magazine has a great first hand account of last year's Death Race.  Read the complete article here.
