This is a first for me. After running countless races, including 4 marathons, I have entered into the life of a triathlete. I have 3 sprint tri's under my belt. Right now I'm probably as out of shape as I was when I first started running again back in 2004. I got burned out. I had numerous injuries. I needed the summer to not do any training. But I slacked off too much and now I'm a couch potato! That is all going to change. I have set my new goal of a 1/2 iron man in June.
This summer has been busy with my two boys. I'm a stay at home mom who would like to get back to being a triathlete not just Mom. School starts this Wednesday. So does my new attitude. This time around I will train to get stronger not faster. I have never claimed to be a fast swimmer, biker, or runner but for some reason I feel like I need to let go of times and speed and work on my strength, mental and physical. If all goes well I will be stronger, faster and ready to kick some butt by June.
5 days and my new life is about to begin.........
