This is a test
Getting my Spirit Back..... Last week I took three unscheduled days off - I just was dreading doing my workouts. It may have been lack of sleep, or tiredness - I am not sure. My coach (Siri Lindley) suggested I take a break and reconnect with my love and passion for triathlon. At first my mind was screaming "ARE YOU KIDDING - IT'S THE MIDDLE OF THE SEASON!" Then it made perfect sense - I did a lot of praying, and a lot of resting. The most important thing I did was spend extra time with my husband and kids. I also took the time to send notes I have been wanting to send, and helped people I have been wanting to help. Sometimes I am in my own little world - I forget to take time to nurture myself, my family, and my friends. I got back to training yesterday, and had a great weekend of training. I am ready to press on - sometimes we just need to stop and be still for a little while. |
