John is an IRONMAN

On August 31st in Louisville, KY John completed the FORD IRONMAN competition. He had been training "full on" since March. Wouldn't you know that the few weeks prior to the event the temperatures had been somewhat cooler than normal but on Sunday it was sunny and 92 degrees and not a cloud in the sky! But fear not, he swam (2.4 miles), biked (112 miles) and ran (26.2 miles) with determination and grit. Along with his Coach, I cheered him on through various stages of the race and I was there waiting at the finish line...so unbelievably proud of him.
