Well, I'm sad to say (but secretly jumping up and down in excitement) that I'm no longer going to do the New Orleans Marathon. Something came up at work that I can't get out of which didn't really tear me up that I wasn't able to do the marathon. I'll do this marathon but just not this year.
To be honest, my mind has been on a holiday since September 12th - the day after my Ironman. I've been working out. Going to spin class, trying to run but it's just not working. So I'm given myself until the New Year (4 more day) to be on this holiday and then it's BACK TO WORK!
I haven't swam for a while and to be honest I really miss it. It's hard work. I feel frustrated sometimes but I still come back for it over and over with a smile. That's how my cycling started and that's where I'd LOVE to get my running to but sometimes you just can't push it. You have to love it or you'll hate it and right now that's how I feel about running. I need to take a break and come back to it soon - when I love it.
In the meantime, swimming, cycling and lifting will by my triathlon.
