I've got to start somewhere though. This is me, today, at 162lbs. It can only get better from here though, right? This year, I have goals. I am not making resolutions, I don't ever keep them. Instead, I am setting goals. So, here they are:
Goal #1: Boise Half Ironman on June 9th
Goal #2: Green River Triathlon, olympic distance, on June 30th
Goal #3: Swim, bike, or run 6 days a week(barring any sickness, vacation, etc)
Of course, in meeting these goals, I plan on achieving other things, such as weight loss, and becoming healthier, but those are just extra benefits in meeting my goals. I have a half ironman training plan, I just need to get it into my calendar to make sure that I am doing things on a proper timeline. At this point in time(and for the previous two weeks), I have been exercising twice a day, and doing two different sports in each day. I get up at 5:30 in the morning, and either run outside, or I jump on the bike trainer in the garage. This way, I can be done by 7, when my husband has to leave for work. When he gets home, I either go to the gym to swim, or else I run or bike again, whichever one I didn't do in the morning. I take Saturdays off(it's my husband's sleep in day, and day to get his long workout in), and on Sunday, I get to sleep in and do my long workout. Today, I met with my trainer at my local gym, and weighed in. We went over a few things in my training plan, and then went out and did some weight training for 40 minutes. After that, I did 65 minutes on the bike at the gym(15.67 miles), and then did some speed work on the treadmill(for 30 minutes(2 miles). My legs feel like jello now, but it's a great feeling!
