    Tuesday's class was a total of 20 minutes at threshold - OY! I'm hoping today is easier. I had to schedule work calls around class because DD's play is tonight. Priorities.

    Love it

    I think I need to get more organized on a training plan in February. I've gotten myself past the "I don't want to exercise" point - it has become part of my routine, and have kept up my goals (and am doing really, really well on my January hourly goal). Now, I need to focus on improving my eating and training with more focus (instead of exercising just to exercise). But - that requires setting some goals (and planning the rest of my year).

    Good for you! I find long range goals are really the best thing to keep me motivated. I'm literally using my to do list from my failed Terrible Two as a training plan. That's in June. I have monthly target rides between now and then as well.

    Sometimes it's hard to find the right combination of things that work. I've had plenty of unfocused and unmotivated years and I know how hard it is to break out of that slump.

    If I can get in, I'm thinking about doing the century version of this. If I can snag a spot - it has been selling out quickly. I'm just worried about the time cut offs + that much climbing (and the fact that I don't live near great hills for training). I did the 50 last year, half a$$ed the training, and finished (though it wasn't pretty).

    Then maybe an iron or half iron aqua bike in October? Maybe.... So much is still up in the air - it's hard to plan!

    Last night did close to an hour on the trainer and a bit over an hour with weights. It was a good workout! Spinning class tonight...

    I've been off my bike for almost a year and on Friday finally recieved the doctor approval to get back on the bike

    I know it's late in the month, but I think this will help motivate me to get back in the saddle. My goal is to try 10 hrs a week (outdoor/indoor).

    That looks like a great event! That would be motivating for sure.

    Recharge for me this afternoon. I was suppose to run, but the rain has come.
