The past month has been nothing short of a whirlwind. Countless meetings, numerous brainstorming sessions, and meticulous planning have filled every waking moment. The goal? To ensure that we lay the groundwork correctly for a project that promises to be both challenging and transformative.
The Dream: An Ironman Like No Other
Picture this: a grueling 140.6-mile race that tests the limits of endurance and resilience. This is the Ironman – a triathlon consisting of a 2.4-mile swim, a 112-mile bike ride, and a 26.2-mile marathon run. It’s the ultimate test of physical and mental fortitude. But what makes this journey even more extraordinary is that it will be completed using only upper body strength, as the entire race will be done in a wheelchair, except for the swim.
Setting the Stage for Success
As we gear up for this ambitious endeavor, the preparation phase has been intense. Collaborating with various experts, we’ve designed a comprehensive 12-month training program. This program will delve into multiple areas, ensuring a holistic approach to achieving our goals. From physical training to mental fortitude, from skill enhancement to personal development – every aspect is being covered.
The Power of a Diverse Team
One of the most exciting aspects of this project is the team we’ve assembled. A diverse group of dedicated professionals is on board, each bringing unique skills and perspectives to the table. Their expertise will be crucial as we navigate the challenges and milestones of the coming year.
Fitness First: The Journey to Peak Performance
While I consider myself fit, the journey ahead demands a higher level of fitness. This realization has been a driving force behind my personal training regimen. It’s not going to be easy, but I’m committed to pushing my limits and achieving peak performance.
The Ultimate Goal: Breaking Barriers
The aim of this endeavor is not just to complete the Ironman but to do so in under 24 hours. This would make me the first quad amputee to achieve such a feat. It’s a goal that is as daunting as it is exhilarating, and it’s one that I am determined to reach.

As we stand on the brink of this journey, there’s a palpable sense of anticipation. This moment feels like the calm before the storm – a brief pause before the whirlwind of activity begins. I’m ready to embrace the challenges, learn from the experiences, and grow through the process.
