Deep Breaths

Since recovering from my big bike week, I’m back to training like a triathlete. I’ve put together three consecutive “basic weeks,” which have included four runs, three rides, and two swims each. My discipline is improving from the off season, but I’m fighting my OCD urge to get too geeked out about training. This is plenty. I’m enjoying my sleep and hope to enjoy my fitness.

The rain has done a nice job of slowing things down today. I needed this. It was a tough week – work deadlines, mom in hospital, an emerging adolescent in the house, and preparing the play for Easter services. Burn-out is lurking… I’m wound a little tight!
