The Greenville, S.C., native had just completed the Beach2Battleship Iron Distance Triathlon, his first at that distance, in just under 12 hours. “This is the most awesome athletic experience I’ve ever been a part of,” said the first-time Iron Distance competitor. “It’s the greatest race I’ve ever run in.” Like most competitors, Whitmire had some motivation for getting to the finish line. “All I kept thinking about was my wife and three kids the whole time.” It seemed that finishing under 12 hours was the goal of most amateur competitors. The race began with a 2.4-mile swim through Banks Channel. After the swim came a 112-mile bike ride from Wrightsville Beach up to White Lake and back to the Battleship. The 26.2-mile run started and ended at the Battleship. Bjarne Moller, of the Netherlands, dominated the men’s field. He finished with a time of 8:47.25. Canada’s Mike Coughlin finished second at 9:21.09. Sara Tussey, of Winston-Salem, was the women’s winner at 10:12.56. Beating the setting sun served as motivation for a few others. The sun began to set at around 6:18 p.m., giving athletes close to 111/2 hours to finish before dark. Craig Gilbert, 49, from Durham finished as the sun was setting. “I really wanted to be in before dark,” he said. “It was a little incentive, but this was my first one so I just wanted to finish and I did that.” Keith Houck, 50, from Chapel Hill finished just after dark. “The sun was setting while I was still on the bridge,” Houck said. “I was trying to beat it. “When the sun starts going down you know the end is in sight, so you go as hard as you can the last few miles.” Adam Rose, a Wilmington resident, crossed the finish line to much applause. Even though he is not originally from the Port City, Rose is proud of how the city backed all the competitors. “Wilmington has been unbelievable as a community supporting all the athletes,” Rose said as his family raced to see him. “I’ve been here for about 10 years and I wouldn’t want to be from anywhere else.” He didn’t beat the sun, but it didn’t matter to Rose. “I don’t care where the sun is as long as I am close to the finish line, it doesn’t matter to me.” As much as Whitmire enjoyed the feeling of crossing the finish line, he is uncertain whether he will participate in another Iron Distance event. “I don’t know, we’ll see how I feel tomorrow,” he said. 2008/10/12 IRONMAN HAWAII 2008LIke so many Saturdays in October since the mid nineties when we were able to get IM Hawaii on the computer I watched the broadcast yesterday!! It was awesome and I think it's time I put in the effort into getting back and doing the race again!! It is the hardest race in the world and there is no bigger Triathlon stage !!! IT IS A AWESOME AND MAGICAL PLACE TO BE!!!! It is also where my sister Shelley rests so it' is and always will be a part of me. My Friend Danny had a great race finishing in 10:31!! Way to go Bro!! The oldest competitor in the race was 79 year old Loren Leonard!! Imagine 79 years old?? This man is 31 years older than I am and on the starting line of "The" race!! How cool is that? Mr. Leonard as I know him lives in the same neighborhood where I grew up. He was a behind the plate umpire all thru my Little League baseball years and still lives there. I don't know how many times he has raced in Hawaii but he's been there many many times!! It's funny but when I'm home at my Mom's house in California I have never ever actually seen him out training (Swimming/Biking or Running) he is always walking with his wife and they are the most fit looking couple you have ever seen!!! My mom sees them walking everywhere and keeps me updated. Mr. Leonard didn't finish yesterday but I hope he is back on the line next year as a 80 year old!!! The most emotional part of yesterdays race for me was waking up this morning and watching the last 10 minutes before midnight and the last finishers!! I noticed the winner of the women's race CHRISSY WELLINGTON was putting the finishing lEI'S around the finishers necks!!! How cool is that???? It instantly brought tears to my eyes!!!! That is the very best if the "IRONMAN" Spirit!!!! 2008/10/10 WBMNice perk making the cover of Wrightsville Beach Magazine this month!!..... Joshua Curry did a great job on the shoot...thanks Josh!! Training is moving full steam this week as I'm working towards 30+ training hours.... at this point with all variables it's a full time job at a 40 hour work week!! It's a good thing this process lasts for only 4 weeks as I don't believe I can do it much longer anymore!! and Hey, don't forget that this weekend is Ironman Hawaii which you can follow at www.ironmanlive.com and while I know many that are racing I will be following my buddy Danny Montoya who is doing the race for his 5th time and is also on his Honeymoon with his beautiful wife Misha!! I was at their wedding in late July and I will post some pictures here in the next couple of days of the wedding!!!! Good Luck BRO!!!!!! 2008/10/8 WOW!!!!!

2008/7/16 Week BlogHi Everyone, I hope all of you are having great summers so far!!!! I'm heading out of town for a few weeks so I wanted to fill in the last week as well the next few weeks. I'm leaving for Dallas in the morning for Kelly's MK seminar. This will be my 15th year in a row heading to Dallas in July. It's always a awesome week where my wife's company celebrates and recognizes it's top people. Awesome show and week!!! I get out on the Golf Course 3-4 times too which I'm looking forward to since I have not been able to find the time this year to play. On the 26th I will be in Las Cruces, New Mexico for my Buddy Danny Montoya's Wedding on the 31st. Danny and I have done most of our Ironman Races together and Danny once again earned his Ironman Hawaii Kona Slot 2 weeks ago at Buffalo Springs....I think this is his 4th or 5th KONA Trip.

So, Check out the pictures above from last weekend on the beach..... Crazy weekend with over 65 rescues, a major surf contest and packed beaches. We were blessed with great surf from Hurricane Bertha and I think I totaled 6-7 hours of surf time in between work and TRI training!!! I was worked BIG time Sunday night especially after Jackie, Josh and I cranked out a 120 Bike Ride Sunday morning. It was Hot and very Humid!! I drank a big Chocolate Milk at 70 miles... Big Mistake!!! Saturday mornings ride I saw something I had never seen before.... a dead Alligator on the side of the road coming back on HWY 421.... imagine!!!

2008/6/2 IT'S IN YOUR MIND.......... When we compete in a Triathlon we are competing in two races. The obvious part is the Swim, Bike and Run. The more significant race though, is the race that occurs in your mind. When you succeed in the mental race you will succeed in Triathlon....... I have seen over and over again athletes who look great on paper and in training, who do all the right workouts and training, are fit and fast and tough only to never be able to bring it to the table on race day or ever reach their full potential. On the other hand I have seen time and time again not the most talented athletes who have great races time and time again especially in the longer distances because of their mental toughness...(I mean a lot) I remember when I first started doing Ironman years and years ago how tough the girls were out on the Ironman course. I was most amazed and impressed. What kind of athlete do you want to be??? My hope is that over the course of the summer we will all become so very mentally tough that you will become unstoppable. Everyone of you have that power within you!! WE all do!!! The question is?? will you seriously work on it and let me help that side of yourself shine thru?? Just Go for it!!! I need this refresher course too so this will be sort of a lesson I am writing to myself. Since I no longer have back issues which I believe was the beginning of the end of my career, I find myself ready to really get rolling again... This is all of our gains...... too much experience and too much in my mind to hold within.
With all of that said, triathletes who are the most motivated to train, who have the most confidence in themselves, who race best under pressure, who stay focused on their race, who keep their emotions under control, and who can overcome the pain on race day will most often achieve their Triathlon goals..... Come with me on this journey!!! I start this week with motivation because without the motivation to get out the door and train we cannot even begin anything else. Athletes: Check your e-mails or Training Peaks e-mails everyday!!! I have enough information to share to last the rest of the year!!!!!!!!! Glenn
I know it's a bit of a cliche'- " Do the best you can"- but what more can you do? If your strong upstairs, then you'll race well. There's not much more you can do than concentrate on your own day and just get out there and give it a go.--- Spencer Smith, three time ITU World Champion
