Once just an isolated and seemingly distant date circled on a calendar some two years ago, November 28th and Iron Man Cozumel is now the dominant feature on the landscape of our lives. As we motor through the next 31 days it will, no doubt, continue to inspire odd and burgeoning mixtures of excitement and trepidation – some moments heavier with excitement and some dominated by trepidation. I ran across a finisher’s story from last year’s race and thought it provided a good preview of what we are in for next month in Mexico: http://ironman.com/events/ironman/cozumel/we-catch-up-with-the-ironman-cozumel-finisher-and-his-journey#axzz13ZMSEbF0
