2020 was a year many of us looked forward to with eager anticipation. As a self-proclaimed Type A person drawn towards symmetry and balance, 2020 seemed like a magical year. I had family goals, travel goals and race goals. My goal race was Ironman Mont Tremblant 70.3 at the end of June. In addition to being an amazing race venue, the race date allowed me to do the bulk of my training while my daughter was in school, kick off the summer with a 70.3, then shift to shorter distance races while my daughter was home for the summer. It was all a perfectly laid plan that allowed physical challenge as well as balance in my personal life. It will probably come as no surprise that 2020 did not go as planned.
