2012 BON TEMPS ROULE

I am so looking forward to 2013, as my race plans have been made. It will be a full year for sure with three Ironman 70.3 races, Leadman 125 and IMAZ. I will be making major changes to my training and strategy for races this year as the only way to improve is to dig a little deeper into my body and soul. All 2012 goals were met and it was a fantastic year culminating with a stop at the finish line of IMAZ. I crossed so many personal goals that I lost track and I hope to the same this year. So to say that I am motivated again is a understatement. But the news of the year is that Kiel and myself will be racing together culminating in finishing Ironman Arizona 2013. Bon Temps Roule, my friends as i hope to train with all my ONE mates again this year.

2013: A Partnership in Ironman

With 2012 well behind us , we are now preparing for the upcoming race season. This is gonna be a very special year as my son, Kiel and I embark on the challenge of completing Ironman Arizona together. This has been my dream vacation since 1987 when I fisrt competed in Ironman Canada. We are both very excited to make this happen.  We will need all the support we can get as well as the training support and camaraderie from our ONE Multisport mates. We will be doing several races together this year in preperation for IMAZ. This is how the race season will unfold:

1. Oceanside 70.3  2. Leadman 125   3. Boulder 70.3   4. SOMA 70.3  5.  Ironman Arizona

This along with some of the local races should help us along the way for our journey. We will have interesting ride in 2013 and we look forward to having our ONE mates help us all along the way. what better present could a dad have than racing Ironman with his son. ONE LOVE for sure! We will need help along our journey as there will surely be many ups and downs along the way. but ONE thing is for sure, we will not quit.  We are in it to finish it. We will be working with new nutrition this year and I will be relying on Kate @DIPT to keep me going through out the year. So look for the Keller boys at a venue near you soon.
