Ironman training

So I knew Ironman training was going to be tough but this is ridiculous! This is my week of workouts:
Monday: Off - but I didn't take off I swam
Tuesday: 45 min swim, 1:10 bike
Wednesday: 1:00 run, 1:30 bike
Thursday: 1:00 swim, 55 min run
Friday: 45 min swim
Saturday: 3:45 bike, 45 min run, 30min swim
Sunday: 1:50 run, 45 bike
If you are keeping track that is 14:45 of working out! this is nuts. Where the hell did my life go?...ok ok so I need to be completely honest and say that I don't do all the swim workouts, I figure I can just slide by with 2 or 3 a week. I absolutely hate swimming and even worse it costs $5 every time I go, yes I'm paying to do something I hate... Incentive gone. I know this will all be worth it in the end but right now, THIS SUCKS! I really really miss just running everyday, it was something I enjoyed and was a fantastic stress reliever. Oh well only 2 months and 18 days left.
