Slacking

So I've not been so good about blogging. Apparently training for triathlon takes up a lot of time. Who Knew? Well I'm going to try and kick it back into gear. So where am I? My Countdown widget says I have 225 days 20 hours 52 minutes and 12 seconds till the gun goes off in St. George. Am I ready? No, not yet but I don't need to be ready yet. Will I be ready? That's the big question. I think I will be. There is still a ton of work left to do but I'm getting better every day.

So some observations thus far:
Organization is key. Trying to cram everything into my schedule is tricky. I've made a commitment to Corrie to try everything in my power to be done training at 6:30 PM. This has been a blessing and a curse. It's a blessing because I have to keep my act together. I need to make sure I get the my lunch time run in, or that I'm wheels down on the bike within 20 minutes of getting home from work. It's taught me to look ahead. I have to have workouts planned for the week. I know what I'll be doing today tomorrow and the next.

There's a big difference between sore and in pain. I spend most of my time sore. My legs, my shoulders, my back. It's been good to learn the difference between that and being injured.

Alright hopefully I'll talk to you sooner next time.
