An optimistic leap

Optimism: too much of it leads to misadventures. But since it's a misadventure in an optimist's mind it's just an unplanned adventure :)


Most of my life I've been an optimist and have a lot of unplanned adventures. When I was 4, I saw another girl swimming in recreational pool and so I, with no hesitation, jumped in. Since my experience was limited to the inflatable backyard pool my sister had to pull me out.
And since that day I've continued to leap, fall, and swim in water again and again. This outlook to water, and more importantly to life, has led to a lot of adventures. That said, I'm very grateful for all the people who have pulled me out or helped me throughout these adventures.
Which, is why I started this blog. I've started asking my friends for help and support while I train for an Ironman. If I train it's doable for me. Having friends to answer to and involved will help me complete all that training required for this long event. 

If you're in, here's what I plan to blog about: at minimum the training that I did. If there is time or motivation, I'll also include: focuses for the day, related topics, nutrition (maybe what I ate or something I learned), and then possibly some random musings.
