Week 4

Week 7 has started out very good. The last 3 weeks have not been so good. Lets jump all the way back to the week before Christmas. I was on vacation and ran a few days and after that, nothing the rest of the week. Sunday I did get in a good run. Monday before Christmas I did get a great swim and lift in. Tuesday I started getting sick and took the day off figuring I had Thursday thru Sunday to workout. Wrong, I got really sick Wednesday and was still sick Thursday. Friday I felt better but not enough to do anything. I drank to much Friday night and slept until 5 pm the next day. Great progress. Sunday I did manage to do 8 miles at an 8:30 pace average which I was super happy about considering how I was feeling the whole last week. Now we are in the last week of December, week 3 of doing nothing. Monday night I went shopping because I got my bonus. I bought a new plasma tv and stayed home and played with that the rest of the night. Tuesday night, I got my heart broke. Of course I didn’t feel like working out Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday (I was super hung over this day too), Friday and Saturday. Sunday came and I was feeling better, but spent the day cleaning because I hadn’t done anything other than watch tv and sit on the couch for the last 4 days. I even slept there a couple nights. So now that brings me up to yesterday where I decided to get my head out of the clouds and really focus. Had another great swim and lifted a lot. Just the right amount of sore today. Tonight I am going to run outside and come home and jump on my trainer at home. The Y got these different stationary bikes that I super hate and I cant get into the spin room so I bike at home now. I also have realized the in the last week that I need a change in my life and need to find someone to workout with and get to be good friends with, but that is a whole different blog there. I broke down and registered for the Hyvee Triathlon. Decided it would be my best shot at doing really well at it this year. I love the races. Wish there was one this month to get me something to focus on that isn’t so far away. I think August is so far away, but when I look at my schedule and I am on week 7 already. Holy santa clause $hit! ( I have been watching a lot of Step Brothers lately) Need to keep chugging along.
