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.

WOD one was just long, but it was good to do after a rest day. WOD two was good and bad. I went out a bit fast on the row, but I felt that I maintained a good pace. Unfortunately I was at a crowded globo gym so the pull ups were broken up between 5 different bars because people kept jumping in to use the "pec fly arnold ridiculous watch yourself in the mirror even though you only bench 115 cables". Gggrrrrrr.
