I’ve always maintained that social media outlets like Facebook and Twitter are successful because they feed the inherent human nature of narcissism. Maybe that statement is just a bit sensational (nobody wants to be called a narcissistic), but think about it; all Facebook and Twitter (or any other social media channel) enable is allow people to say, “look at what I am doing” or “look where I have been” or “look who I am hanging out with” or “look at what I bought!”
Admittedly, blogging is no different. After all, why do I write this blog? It simply to feed my narcissism. What I write about is my training because I want to be an Ironman. It is all about me me me!! There, I said it.
Okay, so since this blog is about me me me, here are a few cropped pictures from the race last Sunday! I look tired and uncomfortable; it is exactly how I felt!

My pictures from the Lifetime International Tempe Triathlon – 2013 |
As for my workout today, I went for a swim during lunch at Lifetime Fitness and did a few sprints. I shared the lane with Terra but by the time I was done with my workout, the pool was pretty empty!
