OK. I know. I've been slacking. I'd tell you all the stuff that's been keeping me busy but a, I'm sure you are just as busy and b, don't really care. So...Tri season is just kicking off here in the NE, elsewhere in the States it's underway already with Cali 70.3 behind us and Ironman St. George just around the corner. Finally 'warm' enough to get outside to train (though crappy gray and cold today) So Mr. TheyTri heading out this morning with some good friends to go and pre-ride the Rev3 Quassy course. That's his first race of the season and one he really enjoyed last season (despite an issue with his pedals on the bike). As for me, I've been TRYING to get out and run. I did OK when we were on vacation and ran yesterday. Having some calf/knee issues. I think I need new shoes. But, I've been trying. Yesterday went fairly well. It's clear I simply cannot run with TheyTri Doggie until I'm faster/she's less hyper. I can't believe I've gotten myself into this 13.1. But, January is a long way off and I have time to get my rear in gear. Makes me nervous, though. Setting a goal is important but I hope I've not overreached. Ah well, worst case scenario is I spend 6 days at Disney! In other news, TheyTri HQ is participating in Holistic Guru's #i8this challenge. We're taking some time this spring to do a little (self) cleaning and focus on our nutrition. Mr. TheyTri is trying to get more leafy greans into his diet (albeit in sneaky ways, he hates them) and to hydrate better. I'm focusing on being better about eating breakfast, drinking more water, trying one new fruit or veggie a day (or, simply eating a veg that's not in my usual routine) and no alcohol for the next 9 days (well, 8, this started yesterday). Hoping some of the habits stick! This is a great idea Holistic Guru has come up with. Hope you join in! |
