What I've been up to

I've been busy lately...

I wrapped up my semester with the class I was taking.

I wrapped up the semester of the class I was teaching.

Working on a research project with a coworker.

Planning my wedding that is about 3 months away (eee!)

 Working out fairly consistently.

I've also been having some fun...

Went to a friends wedding in NYC with a bunch of our friends!

Celebrated St. Pattys Day

And another weekend with friends at a wedding last weekend!

I have to admit, planning my wedding has had a lot of my focus, but I haven't really had the motivation to focus on my nutrition and weightloss. With only 3 months to go, I really need to kick it into high gear. 

Lucky for me, Krystal @ Bia Fitness is kicking off a new competitive program, i'll explain more on that later.

The thing right now I am most excited about...

More details to come tomorrow,

but I will be a race blogger for the Athleta Iron Girl triathlon in Webster, MA!

Priorities

Almost 2 months since my last post!

2 months?!!

I've obviously been in a rut. Sure, I've been running (a little), I've been riding my bike on the trainer, and I even got to the pool once. I started back up at Bia Fitness (early TRX tomorrow). Thanks for following along with me on my facebook page (HERE) while I've been lacking in posts.

Honestly, I've been thinking about priorities.

I didn't do my last triathlon because I knew I shouldn't spend $70 on it. I'm not registering for another next weekend or a few away for the same reason. The wedding is creeping up, I'm trying to save money & stay sane.

I'm trying to keep my priorities in check with saving money, planning the wedding, enjoying life.

I have some exciting things coming up, I need to make sure I keep you all in the loop!

Does money keep you from racing?

What are you saving up for?

Disappointment....

I am so disappointed.

I have been planning on racing my second 70.3 at the Patriot Half in Freetown, MA in June. Yesterday, I went to sign up...

SOLD OUT.

Whaaaaaat?

Totally not expected. Now I am forced to make some decisions and weigh the options.

Option 1: Race a ridiculously hilly 70.3 (Rev 3 Quassy, HITS Lake George, or White Mountain Tri)

Option 2: Race Pumpkinman 70.3 the weekend I get back from my Honeymoon

Option 3: Find a race a distance away... 70.3 Miami, Rev3 Maryland, or Rev 3 FL

Option 4: Skip 70.3, focus on Olympic & sprint distances.

I'm trying to decide what my best opportunity is...

What option would you chose?

Have any race ideas for me?
