Just sitting here enjoying my 1 1/2 hours of quiet.
Jeff has taken up triathlon and is at swimming class tonight leaving me with some Enya, a cup of tea and peace. It is the only time I get these days to spend to myself, we (Jeff and I) spend a lot of time together training - don't take this the wrong way but sometimes you just need to be alone with your thoughts.
All is well at my end of the world, pretty busy with tri training (see below) and work:
Monday - Run Home (45 mins)
Tuesday - Cycling class at speed theory - a killer class (1 1/2 hrs)
Wednesday - Bike/Run (short brick) (35 mins of each)
Thursday - Bike about 1 hr
Friday - Swimming class (1 1/2 hrs)
Saturday - Cycling class (easy) in morning 8:30 a.m. (1 1/2 hrs) then afternoon speed class (2 hrs)
Sunday - Cycling class at speed theory in morning 8:30 a.m. (1 1/2 hrs) (another killer) then swimming (1 hr)
I need to be really organized (even more so than before) now that Jeff is also training. I love the training, but boy do I do a lot of laundry and on the weekends I spend a lot of time making crock pot dishes that are healthy for during the week so I dont' each crap if I get home late from a workout.
I have registered for two 1/2 Ironman's next year already and my I see a new tri bike in my future. As for Ironman 2014 I am have chosen to participate in Ironman Coeur D'Alena which happens in June(http://www.ironman.com/triathlon/events/ironman/coeur-dalene.aspx#axzz2EKtivKez). In fact, I have already booked my coach for Ironman training commencing June, 2013.
As for friends, I am not sure I have any left - you guys still out there? I hope that in the new year I'll be able to sluff off a day or two to see you all.
Merry Christmas to you all.
Maria
