What do I do when I can't sleep ?

I sit up and get wound up by reading ironman stories and finding quotes I memorize when times get tough, maybe that's how I made it through Syracuse 70.3 ironman.

Every day that goes past I realize there is going to be way more to this than training, the mental toughness seems to be large for this, I will bring it when it's time ! 

In the words of the great Muhammad Ali: "Success is not achieved by winning all the time. Real success comes when we rise after we fall. Some mountains are higher than others. Some roads steeper than the next. There are hardships and setbacks but you cannot let them stop you. Even on the steepest road you must not turn back".
