Sacrifice
Seclusion
Scared
Seeking
Suffering
Submission (to the pain, to the "boss" (coach), to the miles, to the heat, to the endless miles of pavement, to the fear, and ultimately to the JOY)
Sinking
Sweating
Swimming
Steak
Strawberries
Senility (how many more miles did you say?)
Sensitivity (to heat, to cold, to people's disbelief, to giving up another weekend to ride, to friends, and loved ones....)
Strength
Stubborness
Sweetness
Strong
Swearing (Damnit!I can ride a whole lot fucking faster than that fucking ride!)
Smooth (from shaving, across the water, up the hill, through the valley)
Suits (trisuits, wetsuits, swimsuits, suitcases)
Shut the fuck up and swim (This is for you, Pete!)
Shut the fuck up and run
Shut the fuck up and bike
STOP WHINING!
Slick (tires, hair dos, and new bikes)
Smelly (cars, gym bags, shoes, laundry, and locker rooms)
S'mores (no, this word is for AFTER ironman!)

Did I MENTION the place we're going the day after IM? With the giant pitcher-sized mai tais and the mechanical bull and the SMORES on the dessert menu that you make over one of their open fires yourself? :)
You forgot a very important S: SEX.
Seriously, in one of my classes we learned sex boosts testosterone in female athletes. And testosterone makes you go faster...
Plus, in my very scientific opinion, it's the best cross-training method out there.
