Lookin' 4 motivation

[Wahine]

Thanks Ladies. I will remember your words as I head out. No scenery today, we're in an inversion and it's lucky if you can see your hand in front of your face. So I'll wear bright clothes and as a comprimise, I will be driving someplace where I can run a relatively flat route, (nothing's truly flat here).

KSH - thanks for the concern. I am having a mental glitch and if it was worse, I would take the day off. But it's not bad enough for that. I have a rule that unless it's really, really bad I have to go out and try. If I still feel like crap after 15 min then I stop. I also keep track of my resting HR to make sure I'm not pushing to hard physically. Guess what, I'm fit as a fiddle according to my HR this AM. So out I go.

IM Can is on Aug 26. Yes it's 6 months away. Right now is when I get my big weekly volumes in to build my base. Then, in April, I cut my training hours back and start working on intensity and speed. But there's always room to miss a workout if I needed the extra rest. I don't need the extra rest, I just need the extra help to get my butt moving because to be honest I find these long slow distance workouts boring as all heck.

RnR - You made me LOL.

CC - I wish I could've done that ride with you.

And thanks to the rest of you.
