~Fitness Goals~

We've all set our own fitness goals at some point in our lives. Mostly at the beginning of a new year. Some follow through while others lose motivation early on. Some plan to eat better, drink more water, work out more often etc...etc. We've all set our ideal goals whether it's that magic number on the scale or perfect size we see ourselves at. Sometimes even after we've achieved such goals we still aren't satisfied. One of the best fitness goals you can set is to complete some sort of race. The camaraderie in such an event is quite overwhelming and the sense of accomplishment is something that can never be taken away from you. After completing my first Triathlon, I was a changed woman and was already looking forward to the next event. THIS is a goal YOU can achieve. On one of my swim practices, I met a 70 year old woman on holiday in San Diego scoping out a good spot to swim as she was also training for her first Tri! I still haven't decided what distance I will participate in just yet and I probably need to decide pretty soon as this is said to be an event that sells out quickly. I have decided to begin the Olympic Distance 10 Week Training Plan. I am already questioning whether I can fit the workouts in this week or not but like I said before, getting started is always the most challenging part. Gotta love a plan that starts the first day OFF! although I did run 3 miles today ;-)

Ready or Not...It's GO Time!

~Overly Indulged~

Well hello old blogger friends...long time, no blog! Yes indeed it's been nearly a month of living the life and finding myself overly indulging outside of the official vacation zone!












There are many reasons excuses for bending the moderation rules. From taking it easy due to a few "growing pains" and just the lack of grace in the growing old process to a few new electronic toys to add to the already many distractions! And just the fact alone of living a vacation lifestyle with bills here in San Diego...which have recently included a number of burrito runs!

Getting Started...that's the hard part. Once you figure out the plan along with some realistic goals and then develop a rhythm and follow through with it the rest is easy! Soooo now to figure out the plan...by tomorrow!!! For the TRIATHLON training! OH! MY! Well I wanted to do an Olympic Tri this time around but it's like 10 Weeks away!!! And the suggested training plan is 18 WEEKS! So now im feeling anxious and nervous and about to chicken out and just do the sprint. BUT...I found a 10 Week Training Plan!!! If I wouldn't have been Overly Indulging now for a month I'd be confident going in with the commitment to do an Olympic distance but today I'm totally having second thoughts! So the catch is...if I can talk someone else into doing their first Triathlon i'll do the Sprint with ya...any takers!

So how 'bout it fellow San Diego bloggies...wanna try a Tri???

Check it out...Sprint Distance Training Plan
