Oh Snap!

Have you seen the countdown box on the right side of this page?  Right now, in this moment it says 117 days.  Holy $hit.  I clearly don't even have enough time to post blogs that I write.

Despite my utter darkness of blog posts I have been training regularly.  My swimming is back to where it was when I ended last season so I know I will make some small improvements before race day.  

I have been faithfully attending spin class two times a week and took my bike for a spin outside last week. I was happy to see that on the open road, my spin classes are paying off.  

As for the running, I was injured for a few weeks so didn't do much.  But on Saturday I was just shy of my 10k PR from about a year ago, when I was running all the time.  So I know with a little focused training that too will come into focus.  


The weather has been wet and soppy but I did manage to get a TV mounted so I can ride my bike on the Trainer and watch some movies.  But as with every purchase like this, I have yet to use it.  


Over the weekend I met some virtual Canadian friends in person (as well as my tri-ladies from SBMArmy!) and have been extended a generous offer to come visit the race course before June.  I hope I can find a way to work that in as it would greatly help my mental game. 

But for now, I just have my eyes set on a sprint distance race in Vegas in mid-April and a half-marathon on Mother's Day in May.  All of this of course leads to the big 70.3 on June 12th. 

Here's hoping I can keep the momentum going, get stronger, and in 117 days cross that finish line!
