SpinDizzy Du(s) A season in one post

Wow! You had a great season, Spin!

Too bad the Niagra race was such a fiasco. What a mess! And yesterday was brutal. I've gotta give you credit for hanging in there and finishing.

Now you can take a welcome break and train for next year.

WOW- another successful season in the books! Way to go, Spin!!!

Thanks. One of my goals was to do a couple of the summer races. I'm not good in heat and humidity and needed to get over that mental barrier. The Belwood race was the 3rd week of July. It was my best performance of the year. Go figure!!

Some of my other goals were not met. Weight goal (just a few pounds heavy-but I didn't get to race weight of last 2 years - curse aging!) and speed goals for run and bike.

So this weekend I'm scheduled to get my bodyfat measurement in one of those Pod thingys. Then I will see a nutritionist (is that a word?) to look at diet and perhaps get a gait analysis done (I kick my ankles a lot - it's called heel whip.) I have an ultrasound scheduled for tomorrow for my nagging, chronic "I don't know what or how I did it" supraspinatous injury.Then meet with my coach and plot a course for next year.

Way to go! I can't wait to hear about your meeting with a nutritionist! I love that stuff!

Awesome season, SpinDizzy. Maybe no PBs, but lots of solid races and you got to expand your horizons into some different conditions (intentionally or not ).
