Believe the hype: Impossible Is Nothing! IronMan South Africa is set to celebrate 10 years of awesomeness on 6 April 2014. There was quite a buzz when entries sold out in October, which continued as organisers announced new swim and bike routes in November!

Dear first-time IronMan
My spirit will be on the beach start-line with you, looking out across the water: in 2012 I left I huge part of myself forever standing on that beach, saying: “You can do this”…

IronMan South Africa 2012
Mentally, however, I found myself in an incredibly difficult head-space after some personal disappointments this year that I have been battling to deal with. I was expecting a long conversation with myself on race day, or rather the continuation of a conversation that had started some time ago. But I also expected to be leaving a lot of stuff out there on the course; something had me convinced that this was the event that would see me leaving some demons strewn along the course, with me emerging less encumbered, stronger for the experience. Thiswas the ritual I have been searching for. I knew that this IronMan, for me, would be raced entirely in my head.

A Life Without Limits: A World Champion’s Journey
I have watched numerous Chrissie Wellington videos on YouTube, and have been inspired by her gutsy performances and huge smile when she races! The book is an amazing insight into this world champion triathlete’s career.

Best IronMan inspiration on YouTube
“Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”
