I have my first triathlon of the season in 2 short weeks. I haven't really been thinking about it with being sick and having sick kids and skating shows and other general mayhem. TWO WEEKS!!! I am getting a little anxious and mostly because of the way my sister brought it up - like she's in direct competition with me! Last time I did this race I came in second for the Athena division (and yes, there were 5 of us - but my sister didn't compete) So, knowing that our field is pretty small, she's eyeing the prize and she wants to beat me. WOW. We've always trained together, but its always been about bettering our times and not beating one another. I suppose it's one way to push each other, but I really hope that things don't get out of hand.
On another note, I am REALLY stumbling on the diet. I tried SPARK, but it's been a while and I forgot how time consuming it can be. I am also developing a case of carpal tunnel (or something like it and my elbow/wrist can only take typing and mousing for just so long before I am aching...
RECOMMIT - weigh, measure, count calories. 1500 is the magic number there... I am done eating today. I will have a better day tomorrow. I will weigh in this FRIDAY. I will follow my training schedule. I did have an awesome 2200 m swim workout today. I felt strong and this is GOOD!!
