FIRST

I have added another Tri to my year. This will be my first indoor Triathlon. I could have done in last year but opted out. Coach encouraged me to give it a shot this year. Also he is the race director. I am not sure what to expect and do not like short distances. I do know the best part is that I will not be out on the course by myself. It is at the club where I train on March 15th.

Waddling to add another race to my schedule..............

WEEK 8 OF 14 (PRE-IM) TRAINING

This week it is time to get the training back on the track. I started today by taking a rest day. LOL. I wanted to get that out of the way so I did not have to worry about it!

Yesterday, I did make it to Master's swim. I did not drown! I was happy with my workout but my form which was improving took a huge step backward. I know coach will help me get it back for sure.

If I am lucky, I hope to have some good weather to get a few runs in outside. I have reached my limit running on the dreadmill. I am close to my limit on riding my trainer. While watching the Tour of California, I was very envious of those guys riding outside.

Waddling into another week...............

I'M OKAY!

It's 3am and another restless night. The last 2 weeks have taken a toll but again things like this can only make you stronger. Thank you for all the prayers and support. Snips called me last night and after a few laughs I realized that I am OK.

My training has been a huge stress reliever. I haven't gotten in alot of time but the time I have worked out has been quality. The biggest shortcoming has been in my swimming time which I intended to change in 4 hours from now.

I am very nervous about returning to the pool. It has been 2 weeks and for some reason I feel that I have lost alot and it will be hard to keep up with the workout. I know that when completed that I will feel alot better.

Waddling back to sleep..............
