I Have a Season!
The other morning in the locker room a woman asked me what was my season looking like. I actually had an answer. I've never had an answer before because I've only ever trained for 1 event at a time. I feel so energized by having a season - I feel like a big girl! Of course this means I have to start training in ernest now but it's time. What better time to start some real training than the oink-alicious Holiday Season, right?
I'm not sure what my "A" race is but I'm thinking that sprint distance Triathlon I've done twice is it. I would so love to come in under 2 hours on that thing and I think I can.
If I fully participate in my Race Club I will do 8 events this year but so far I have this:
1). WildFlower - Olympic Distance May 5-6
2). Sharkfest 1.5 mile swim - June 10th
3). Breath of Life Olympic Distance Tri - June 24th (I will be SO ready for the swim!)
4). Tri for Real - sprint distance Tri in mid-Sept
5). Nike Half marathon (possibly) in early October
I'm sure I will add lots of events in the summer as I find them. Right now it's all about WildFlower which will be my season opener. My.Season.Opener - I have a season!

If you have a season it means that you are a real athlete with a great program. Lucky you, I don't have any plan for now, neither for the next race!

Now you need sponsors who paint logos on your shoulders.

I'm with you on planning a "season." Nothing keeps you more motivated than signing up for a race! Great lineup.
