What a week, on a personal level it had both ups and downs, but mostly ups. On the Training front it was a good week. Made it to a workout 3 nights last week, it is always a balancing act to get workouts in when you live a full life.
I felt good with my workouts this week. I am only able to do Cardio right now due to injuries to both a knee and a shoulder. The knee I partially separated in the pool one night just swimming laps. Note to self – DO NOT swim without the knee brace. This week I should be able to start some weights this week to get everything back as strong as I can and to kick the cardio up 10 or 15 minutes more each night. I plan on working out 4 nights this week.
The shoulder I actually developed tendonitis on New Years Day from painting. To say that I can be focused and a little obsessive when it comes to getting a task completed might be a little LIGHT – to quote a commercial currently airing. I painted for 11 hours straight on the 1st just to finish up a project. So now 2 weeks later my shoulder has settled down enough to start a little Physical Therapy and work the rest of the soreness out before I can hit the pool for any swimming.
I will be starting this week off on a very positive note: I am officially registered for the Cottage Lake Tri & Tri Again – Sprint Triathlon. I have some friends that wanted to support me in this experience and so they surprised me and sent in the registration for me. I am so amazed and delighted I just can’t put it into words what that meant to me. When I opened the box and saw the registration confirmation I cried.
So now there are no excuses, the money has been paid I will do this, who will join me?
