Winter is Upon Us
The blog has been updated and configured and the running has started up again. Well, slowly, but I’m finally trying to get back into a routine.
This past year has been quite busy. I ran 3 races, completed 3 triathlons and logged a lot of miles. I will do a full recap closer to the end of the year but what made me change the blog ?
After my successful 70.3 race, I lost all desire to train, write and pretty much do anything with running, biking or swimming. I’m not exactly sure what happened but I think it was information overload. I needed to rest the brain after a very tough summer. When you work, swim, bike, run, eat, sleep and do it all over again the next day just becomes part of your routine. It is all towards your final goal.
I achieved my goal and in a way I messed up. In my head I stated I was going to run the Harvard 10 mile run and finish the season with the Lowell Monster Dash Duathlon. What I did wrong ? I didn’t follow through with my plan. If I had signed up for the races then I would have kept on training.
