I trained and raced triathlon and endurance events for 6-7 years on and off.
For the last couple of years I've had to stop the sport due to chronic adrenal fatigue, however I'm now slowly getting back into cycle commuting and gym work.
I never completed an ironman and the goal has alluded me, I think I just want to do an ironman once to tick it off and get the monkey off my back and put the issue to rest so to speak.
The idea and time commitment of getting back into triathlon for the long term doesn't appeal for my life stage (plan to start a family in 3-4 years) so thinking the next 2-3 years is my shot before kids come along.
Anyone else done ironman for the bucket list then really eased off or done something else after.
It's such a big goal I've had for almost the past decade and don't want to leave it until it's too late.
I'm 28 years old now.
