Resolution

I resolve to start using this blog for its intended purpose!

I resolve to start using this blog, period!

I am newly motivated in my running and newly obsessed w/ the idea of triathlons - perfect time to get into this blog, I have the momentum, just need to execution!

This week is my 3rd 30+ mile week in a row of running after a VERY sluggish summer. In thinking back I realize this may have been less about me being lazy (as I assumed and was beating myself up about for the past few weeks) and more about me needing a physical and mental recovery from a year in which I did 3 marathons - a lot for me! So this break, while annoying to me while I was in the midst of it, actually may turn out to be the best thing I could have done for myself and my running (even the LBS I packed on this summer -not cool at ALL - are falling away as quickly as I gained them now that I am running again).

So in addition to building up my miles I am adding in biking and swimming to my routine due to my new found OBSESSION with the idea of doing a triathlon! I'm also toying with the idea of adding yoga into the mix as well since i m SO bad about stretching....a lot of plans and i need to find a way to work all of this into my already packed schedule, as well as really lay out my goals for this next year in terms of races, so I can plan properly....a little overwhelmed but excited as well. I feel like me again these past few weeks as I have been hitting the pavement, and I expect good things to come form this.

I am back.
