The Ironman: You can quit, and they won't care...but you'll always know

It's a slow morning, and with occasional posters like Ironman finisher Mike Jones threatening mutiny here on Under the Dome, I figured a post catering to the runner/triathlete portion of the readership was in order. Plus, I raided the pantry last night and am in need of a little inspiration myself. A fellow endurance runner e-mailed me this video.

After seeing someone like Scott Goodfellow in this video get up and compete in the Ironman after being out cold on the pavement, all you can say is "yes, you can." Gotta admire people who are determined to get themselves through this, and I can surely identify. This year's Ford Ironman Championship is October 10 in Kona. That's the week after the Arkansas Traveller 100 mile race in the Ouachitas.
