Random thoughts

Ok

Here are a few things that keep creeping into my monkey mind:

1) who the hell am I thinking I can do any of this?

It doesn't take much to have this feeling. You show up to a few swim sessions and see athletes bodies, rippling muscles, gliding above water and moving forward like little porpoises. Thank goodness the warm weather isn't warm enough that I have to look at calves pumping bike pedals or toned arms swinging easily at runner's sides.

And then there's me. Ms Roly Poly Who Do I think I AM?????


2) where the hell is my coach. Well she's in India. I've sent a message regarding my wanting to work more on the run than the bike and whether that's a good idea at this point. I ran 14 K two weeks ago and I KNOW in my heart of hearts that I should be running 16 this weekend but it's not on my training schedule. No answer. So I feel a bit unsettled. I also feel like at this point I could be managing my own training schedule or finding a different coach.

3) There is no three. Except I want to train about 4 hours a day if life would let me. I'm starting to obsess already. Yikes. I'm 12 weeks from GWN. I'm already panicking a bit. How come everyone else seems so cool?

Yeah. Ok so I bought a wetsuit. My bike beckons me but life is getting in my way. I plan to sign up for IMC 2009.

That's all folks.
