Tim Don was ITU world champion in 2006 (the last time there was a podium without Spaniards), he has the best brand in the Ironman franchise with 7:40:23 achieved in the IM of Brazil last year, and it is the current world bronze in IM 70.3
Tim was facing the Hawaii World Cup with aspirations of everything ... but a few days before the competitionsuffered an accident when he trained on a bike that could almost cost him his life.
The recovery of Tim Don has not been easy, on the contrary, even one of the brands that sponsors him, Endura, campaigned to be able to fundraising and help you with your medical expenses since they have been very high. At the beginning of February Tim Don himself announced his intention to run the Boston Marathon

Who takes care of your safety! I have started using front and rear light always, both day and night in my workouts. Obviously you have to comply with traffic rules and respect other vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians. And also have fun!
Never give up always try to give the 100%. Do not waste energy trying to control what you can not. For me that meant focusing on my recovery and not on the accident or on what could have been if Kona 2017.
It has grown and has much more media coverage. One thing I noticed is the popularity and intensity (fitness levels) of the age groups. In triathlon it is so popular that it has become a way of life!

No, I will not be ready for a complete Ironman in May, but maybe in July in Europe. The approach is easy if you live minute by minute. Concentrate on the process, all the small things you need to be well in the race. Feeding, hydration, tactics, confidence, knowing the routes, etc ... this is how I am facing the race and the 7h40min23s of competition are not that long.
Compete again, qualify for Kona and fight for the best possible position in October's 13

Do repetitions on the climb to Lefthand Canyon. It is an ascent of 30 km to the Rocky Mountains of Colorado with an incredible landscape.
A long journey on the Magnolia road one early Sunday morning. They are simply stunning 30-36km!
