The Ticket’s Junior Miller On Finishing His First Ironman

The Ticket's Morning Musers returned to the radio airwaves from vacation this morning. On his vacation, Junior Miller ran an Ironman triathlon, something he said he'd never do. I heard him tell the story this morning. If you didn't, you can read a version here. My favorite passage:
By the halfway point of the run, I was dead. I again had to talk myself out of quitting. I eventually figured that I'd come this far, done all of the training, and would probably never do another one of these stupid events again, so I might as well finish, even if I have to walk the rest of the way.
