140.6 sMILES

It Was More Than Just Crossing the Finish Line... (Whole New Life, Book 2)

De: Stacy Ryan

Narrado por: Stacy Ryan

2.4-mile swim, 112-mile bike, and 26.2-mile run = 140.6 miles. It's called Ironman. I completed two of them in my mid-thirties. At the time, I thought it was just another fitness goal I set for myself. And, yes, it's definitely a huge fitness goal, but 20 years later as I look back at this accomplishment, it was not about crossing the finish line at all. Both the physical and mental strength it took to train for, as well as complete it, actually provided me with the physical and mental strength I needed years later when I found out I had cancer, as well as when I learned my husband's cancer was terminal. I will share what I learned during this part of my life, other than just swimming, biking, and running 140.6 sMILES and how it equipped me for my future self.

Thanks, Stacy, for putting into words the feelings we get when training for IM. It does make you mentally stronger, beyond the physical strength. Thanks for sharing the highs and lows of life.
