💯Today marks 100 days left in 2026. Make them count.

🎉We don’t need to wait to New Year’s, or the beginning of the month, or next Monday to set goals.

🌟It’s more effective to set lifestyle changes than to set goals that have a time limit.

The strength and stability to balance is also part of fitness. Calisthenics got me there with Coach Ramsthenics

It took months, but I eventually progressed to 11-second free handstand.

The progression includes:
💫 handstand from floor
💫 handstand from chair
💫 handstand from wall

…and finally that got me to a free handstand!

Today marks 100 days to Ironman 70.3 Musselman.

07/10/2023

IRONMAN Muskoka 70.3 Complete! I placed last in my age group! And among the last by gender and overall. But more importantly, I was the last one across the finish line at 4:04:40 pm before the course closed at 4:05pm, but I finished the biggest athletic challenge I put for myself. I owe thanks to so many… and will write a more meaningful post when I am coherent and have rested.

DAY 1: Bike check in done! ✅ Today was all about taking it easy. Walked the swim start and swim finish paths, drove the run route (no wonder they call it a hilly run!!) ⛰️⛰️ Carb loading for breakfast lunch and dinner! Overcast conditions expected for tomorrow which is perfect! And now good night….until T time tomorrow!

DAY 2: Grand plans for today with a goal of getting comfortable and familiar with the race routes. Athlete check in done ✅ Practice bike ride for 20 km to try out the elevation done ✅ Practice swim to feel the water and swim part of the route done ✅

Tomorrow bike check in! And taking it easy the whole day and ofcourse, the race prep wouldn’t be complete without the carb loading.

DAY 3: It’s the real countdown to Ironman! and I have arrived at Muskoka. Self-talk should always be positive. We’re in high spirits! We spent the drive recalling how we both decided to do this challenge and how we spent the past few months training together. We’ve packed our bikes, our gear, hydration and nutrition. Waiting on our friends and to arrive tomorrow.

DAY 8: Locking in a Canada Day 5K for Canada Day 🇨🇦
Temperature: 29C feels like 36C, and add 10C for the run factor! Too hot. I have Egyptian blood but I can’t handle this heat.
