Hey HEY!!! HELLLOOOOO!! wow...so i promised last time that i wouldnt be such a dork and wait so long to post. I fibbed. I promise i wont do it again. The truth is...i really have been busy. i know i know...we all are...but dont think for even think for one second that this blog hasn't plagued my mind!! haha..honestly i have felt SO guilty for not writing!! so what the heck is going on in my life....well.....are you ready for more truth???..here goes...i went through a RUT! haha...i think we all do. a training rut for a while! i was really having issues..not really motivational issues- but just tired! i am still searching for the root cause. i dont really care anymore because i did pull out...FINALLY! i was having trouble staying focused...i was tired...and all that spiraled into being mad at myself which doesn't help your training at all! i think if i was to put my finger on it...i would accuse my boyfriend. HA. seriously.....relationships and triathlon just dont work...or at least its a lot of work. he has no idea how much work it takes for me to balance him in my life. damn...i cant believe i am saying this! haha...poor guy! No but seriously--i give you married people CREDIT!! im not even married...just dating and im having issues. late nights...dinners where your calories arent watched...morning workouts--delayed!! no wonder i was in a rut...my whole schedule got messed up--let alone the stressors of personal life stuff just mounting up higher and higher!!
well i put my foot down this week and i took off two days to get caught up on everything!...including my blogging! The good news is this...a friendly reminder...if you are in a rut....you WILL pull through it. if you are reading this and you are in your preseason winter slump...make the change now!!! its not too late to get things back in order. everyone goes through it and even though you may feel like you will never get those lets back..the rest is probably a blessing in disguise and you will bounce back within a few workouts!
so now that we've established that...honestly nothing is too new. i am going to race Devilman on May 4th instead of this April 19 virgina race...that is too soon. my "rut" set me back. im just not ready to race in 2 weeks. no biggie-it is what it is. im going to post my workout plan leading up to the race...ill post it soon--it will give you some insight as to what im doing.
im eager for nice weather. i think i get seasonal depression --always hits me in march...i just cant wait for warmth!! i need to move out of the city...i need to go west. im in the midst of looking for a new gig...i would like to work in the industry--hopefully i'll get to relocate!! i need sunshine or mountains or both....tall buildings are ugly!! :)
so i promise that my posts are going to get more interesting...especially since we are really moving quickly into the season!! FINALLY!! I love it! ALL the hard winter work will finally start to pay off!!
So how are you all? I have missed you! Please let me know that you are still out there! Let me know how your training is going!! What are your races this season??
Okay bye bye for now...i promise this time ill be back soon!
