Start Again

I decided to start posting again. Maybe I'll actually do more with this blog now.

It's raining, even if weather.com says it's not. And I hate the rain. I'm not a very motivated person. I know like all these triathletes are into getting up at 5 and working out in the snow or whatever other stupid shit they can come up with. But I hate waking up. And I hate the rain.

This was the first night I've slept good in awhile, what with the coughing and having to sleep sitting up. I was so exhausted last week, since I went ahead and started my first week of base (after an illness-cased delay) but I wasn't sleeping. So this morning, it just felt so good to actually be able to lie in bed and I could hear it pouring out. Steve got up and went for a ride and I just stayed in bed until 9:30. Sigh. I do enjoy being able to work from home when I want.

I worked for about 2 or 3 hours. Then I went for a run in the pouring, cold rain. It was, um, cold. Only did 3 miles, with a couple 1 and 2 minute pick-ups just to work on some speed, since you know I have none. The pickups were harder than I would have liked, but at least they're done. Got home and steam came off my legs.

Going to go to my possibly new gym and try out the swimming program again. Maybe this time there will actually be other people and a coach. Maybe.

I just have to get through a staff meeting first. God I hate staff meetings.
