This blog will chart my insanity from here to Ironman Nice 2008.
Do I do triathlons? - er, no
Have a got a bicycle? - not really
Can I swim? - well kind of
Can I afford to do an Ironman? - not really
Am I fit and healthy? - well apart from a broken ankle in plaster, a cracked rib and UC, yes!!
Impressive start don't you think 
So this is officially my first day of becoming an Ironman, I need to buy a bike and a swimming costume (do I need one of those?) 
I'm too knackered to write any more today!

Now THIS is a blog I am going to follow with interest!
As someone who get worn out opening a bottle of wine, I think I am going to enjoy sitting back and reading about your journey. What are you doing it for? Is it a charity fundraiser? Or more of a "because it's there" type thing?
In any case, good luck!
