So, my friends are doing an Ultra Man. A three day event that starts Saturday in Canada. It is a 10K swim and a 90 mile bike ride on day one. Day two, is a 170 mile bike ride. Day three is a 52 mile run. Now this may seem completely impossible to the average person...but not these two! They could do literally anything! They have lived their lives dedicated to be being superb athletes. They each have really good friends crewing for them every step of the way during this endeavor. This will be one of the biggest adventures of their lives.
Most people hear about this and say it is impossible....but what I have learned form them is that anything is possible if you just set your mind to it! People always say, "I don't have time to exercise." But if you watch Jim and Janine Boldra you know you do have time. They both have jobs, they both have hobbies, they both have families that they adore.
The true inspiration of an adventure of this magnitude is that the human body and spirit has so much more to give this life than you think! You have more in you than you ever imagined.
So proud to call them my friends. I have learned so much from them but the most important thing is that a healthy, fit life can lead you to a bit more adventure.
Go get it Jim and Janine and come home and tell us all about it!
