WELCOME TO IRONSTRUCK
Each time we go into a new year the Triathlon picks up more and more speed and continues to take the world by storm.

Each year new races are born. For instance races like Ironman and Half Ironman China took place in Haikou in 2008. In August 2009 Calgary hosted a highly successful inaugural 70.3 and this race has all the signs of becoming a blockbuster and world favorite. Plus this newest 70.3 will be run in the shadow of the stunning Rocky Mountains. 
How can it miss when Calgary normally sends some 250 entries to Ironman Canada in any given year. So there is a good entry base in the host city as Calgary is fast becoming "triathlon central" for Canada. With every passing race, more observers become "Ironstruck." More people move from the sidewalk of life as a spectator and onto the road as a participant. Ironstuck is about the philosophy that each of us----that every single person in the world-----regardless of station in life, is capable of so much more. If only someone can spark the flickering flame within by believing in us and giving us that one final nudge that ignites the fire of hope, passion, and the dreams that many have, but have never allowed themselves to live. Ironstruck the website has grown from two or three visitors a week four years ago to almost four thousand every month with visitors dropping by from over 50 countries around the world. Ironstruck is about more than a sport or a race. It is about truly living, and growing, and for the first time perhaps realizing what you are truly capable of on so many levels. If only you take that leap of faith and someone believes in you. Well, someone does and always will. Visit Ironstruck when you are down. Realize perhaps for the first time, that it is YOUR life to live, and ultimately it is up to you to decide the course it takes. Not your husband, wife, children, parents, boss, or friend........YOU. The nucleus of your support will no doubt come from all the people closest to you, but ultimately it's up to you to embrace the challenge of the Iron Gods. COME....COME SHOW US WHAT YOU ARE MADE OF... You only get one shot at this thing called life. By doing what truly will make you happy, everyone in your circle and everyone you touch will eventually benefit from your transformation. Every single morning when you wake up, you have the option to begin to change your life from what it was when you went to sleep the night before. Overweight? So what? 60 years old? So? Hate your Job? Always tired and depressed? Always looking at others and wishing you could be like them? Just plain not happy with your life situation? Your relationships, your fitness, your outlook on life, your future. So? Change it. Take that first step. Take that first power walk around the block. Then two blocks--then three. Then run for 5 minutes.....or 10. Try YOGA.......streeeetch gently and reach for the stars.... AWAKEN. FEEL THE POWER WITHIN. Don't give up and you will feel the transformation as your mind, body, and spirit embrace your new lease on life. Your new beginning. One day you will walk that 10 km course for charity. One day you may run it. You may tackle a marathon. You may do an Ironman. You may find that job you truly want, start the business you dream of and the life you really want to lead. YOU will control your destiny. DOING is the key and not necessarily how fast or how far. What really counts is that you are beginning---perhaps for the first time---to realize how truly special and amazing you are. What extraordinary gifts we have all been blessed with. The incredible life-force we have within. So if you are reading this, welcome to "Ironstruck." It will always be free for you to come and visit with me. Don't feel for a second that you have to be an Ironman to be here. However, if it is in your heart, you have certainly come to the right place. You have also come to the right place if you need a little inspiration just to take that first step that will open the door to a new beginning for you. Regardless of where that door leads. Regardless of what wonders and accomplishments it will give birth to. Remember that you can always email me from my contact page on this site. From the very inception of "Ironstruck" I made it the cornerstone of this site that I would answer every single email I ever receive from a visitor. To this day I have done that. And that is also free........So whatever is on your mind, I will do the best I can to help. There is no such thing as a dumb question to me. I wish you and all the best of luck and hope that in some small way Ironstuck will enlighten you and help you realize that the future is not written in stone and perhaps for the very first time, you will be moved to seize the power within and become the new, improved you that has always been there just waiting to be discovered. So welcome to Ironstruck. I hope you enjoy your visit. If it strikes a chord with you tell your friends or better yet, put a link on your website. This is a free site, and no purchase is ever necessary, but if you like you can purchase one of my books. You will be supporting Ironstruck and at the same time I'm sure you will enjoy reading it and perhaps it will be the final push you need to make positive changes in your live.
