It has really been a great year. I am feeling pretty good these days. The past couple of weeks I have been doing week one of my training plan just to keep in shape and get ready for the plan to start. Jan 20 is when is starts. This way I am getting my body used to the workouts and the structure.
In the past I would start running around late Jan or early Feb to get ready for the "Derby Races". Once I finished those races I would start riding and pretty much quit running. As it got too cold to comfortably ride, I would slack off until time to start running again.
This year has been the exception. I have kept up with running and riding the whole year. Went out and did a quick 20 mile ride yesterday quite easily. A lot more easy that I would have been able to in past Decembers. And I am still running. Nice and easy 3 today since I had a hard swim this morning.
I may not be in the best shape of my life right now, but I am in the best shape that I have ever been for this time of the year. And it is only going to get better as I start to push my training.
As I start the plan I will try to update my blog more frequently. Thanks for reading.
As for the new year...it is what you make it. Go out there and make it a good year! Set a goal. Sign up for a race and go do it. Make a plan, stick to it, and make it happen.
Glad to hear training is going well. I took a spin class about 2 weeks ago for the first time. Let me just say I don't see cycling in my future, but it was fun to do something different. My goal this year is to run the mini in under 2 hours. Yikes!
