January and Febuary in fitness are crazy! It's a good thing for me they are- however amidst early morning voice mails and emails, mid day catch on up the same, and late evening last chance check on any customers who need service- all between articles, appointments, interviews, and working with staff members...my workouts are there but sporatic.
This week has been better and now I'm about to leave for four days of 'off' for the most part if you're talking tri-specific workouts. I have stocked up on several good base building rides over the last week- 3 2-hour and a couple longer runs- 2 60-minute (indoors) and a couple swims- the weak link due to more scheduling issues (and a soft pillow calling).
I'm feeling fit and ready and looked over an epic/extreme camp option for June that is one long mega weekend of swim, ride, run and eat basically. Sounds like a great time- and crazy that there are other people who actually would also think that was fun!
Monday is March 1. I get on track with training programs this day and will do some testing late next week to get going.
Here we go!
