For those of you who don't know, i signed up for the triathlon while I was unemployed. This was a time when I had pretty much all the time in the world to go to the gym and plan out my training routine. However, through some good fortune, I am now part of the workforce again. I no longer have the same kind of free time the joy of collecting the fruits of my unemployment insurance came with. I've gotten a lot of questions of whether or not i'm still planning on running. Of course I am. It may require a lot more discipline and planning in order to give my training the proper commitment required, but it can still be done. If something is truly important, you learn how to make time for it, even if it's not the most convenient course of action. It might be giving up an hour of sleep or just not waste as much time. This is something I've wanted to do for a while and I'm going to stick with it.
With all that said, my first few weeks of both training and work have been pretty profitable. Some days were harder that others but i can already feel the difference from when i first started. The biggest thing that I've noticed is how important diet is. The days that I've eaten right, I have a lot more energy during my workouts as well as a much faster recovery time. The days that Dominos comes knocking, that 5th mile hurts. On a side note, you should try out the new Dominos. The new changes are actually really good. Anyway, at the start I'm looking forward to watching my own progression and being able to complete an event that I can barely believe I'm getting ready for.
Check back soon for updates. I'm going to try and post thoughts along the way as well as information about events I'm throwing together. Thanks for reading.
