I hate that just as I start to get my workout mojo back, I start to get sick. I'm thinking lack of sleep over the weekend, a crappy diet the last week, and everyone sick at work are to blame. Tuesday night I guzzled 3 cups of green tea, and wednesday morning I had DayQuil, Airborne, and green tea before heading to work. Today though, I'm feeling stuffy, headachy, exhausted, and have a sore throat. I'm skipping work in favor of more rest and healing. Mayyyybe I'll see if I feel up the gym later. But for now, after I get things straightened out, its back to bed. Then maybe I'll have some time to clean my bathroom and work on my tri training schedule.
Aimee @ I Tri to Be Me suggested I try following an Olympic training plan to keep my mileage base up. So I've searching around online for ideas on one I like. So far what I'm not liking is longer than an hour in the pool! I don't think I've ever swam for that long! I'll need to get the waterproof Ipod case just to keep me occupied. I am excited to use my new swim cap from REI though!
Guess what came in my email...

Shelley was already begging me to do this race, but it being so close to Disney 2012, I'm not sure if it will be a smart financial decision. My credit card is still hurting & waiting for my tax return to settle last vacations bills. I am reasoning with myself saying they are a month apart, and I have a coupon code for Disney & could probably find one for Vegas or wait to sign up till I'm at RnR Providence. I just think it would be extra awesome to run the beautiful strip at night!
I also got an email about the Danskin Tri in Webster. It is now scheduled for July 24, which may make it warm enough to go without the wetsuit!
In other news.... like my Power Balance giveaway!

Hope you feel better soon!
And I hope that we don't need wetsuits because I actually don't own one and I'd prefer not to buy one. :-)
I too have acquired a cold-like illness (it's my second one of the winter). Uggg, congestion and sore throat and T.I.R.E.D.! Get some rest, drink, pee - repeat!
Feel better!
I sure hope you feel better soon. I also have chest cold. Stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. Take Care. I would love to do a tri but I dont know how I could stay in water that long. Not a fan of water.
Congrats to MISSZIPPY on her win.
hahaha....I've decided to do both the Vegas & the Goofy Challenge this coming winter. I turn 30 in December and I think it will be completely justfied. Esp since there was a 48hr sale on Vegas and there's a discount for the Disney...Go for it! :)
