Kick off to crazyville

March 10th, 2008

Today is the first day of Triathlon training.

What is so funny about this is that two weeks ago I had decided to take myself out of doing the 1/2 iron man altogether, it just felt like too much.  The whole “thing” felt like so much that I wasn’t excited AT ALL, to do any of it.  And let me tell you friends, that is way too much training to not want to do it.

What is even more funny, is that I do this ever year BUT forget that I do it.   What I mean by “this” is that I am never excited to start this training and then I feel like I don’t want to do it because there must be something wrong with me that I am not excited because who would’nt be excited about working out 15 hours a week?  and being tired all the time?  and having your butt go numb on your bike seat?  and having your legs cramp?  and your eyes having perpetual red swollen rings around them due to your goggles?

But thank goodness for Jen. For the past three years she has gotten to hear me bitch and moan at this very same point every year.  And every year she has said to me, “Yeah, you said the same thing last year, don’t you remember?”

This just proves that I’m not getting lazy and loosing my edge.  It just means I’m loosing my MIND!
