“You are an Ironman.” These are words that some dream of their entire life. The Ironman is an event, or a journey, that can take many early mornings and late nights. It is the extreme of exercise, the extreme of mental strength, and the extreme of suffering. This event requires intense training in running, cycling, and swimming. It is also considered to be one of the most difficult things a human can do. So, I ask the question, how difficult could it really be?

Working out is a very important part of living a healthy and productive life. It is also important to gain the habit as a teen and bring it into your early stages of adulthood. Working out not only makes you feel healthier, but it can also help your overall appearance and self-esteem. 

With the new year coming and going, I’m sure many of you have written and hopefully committed to your fitness and health goals this year so far. Many people set goals concerning the gym and their health at the start of the year, but they often fall back into the same old habits. A survey held by “Sundried”  with a sample of  4,000 people found that 43% of them thought they would fail after just a month. Research also shows that over 95% of resolutions are fitness-related, but by March, only around 10% of goals remain. My plan is to help and show that it is possible to stick to your goals whenever they’re made, especially New Year's Resolutions.
