train keeps a rollin’

still going at it. though I got a bit discouraged tonight as I looked at the past 3 weeks of training logs, I feel like I’m doing a ton of hours each week but the reality is i’m only getting about 5 -6 hours for the entire week! to reach the goals I have in my head i really need to step it up and do more (double) but I guess I still need to slow down and pace myself so I don’t get hurt and the overall time will come as it gets easier.

I’m still struggling to get a good run in after a long swim or bike work out. Friday night I did 12 miles on the bike and had a 3mile run planed out in my head bu the reality of my legs burning and heart pumping like mad only got me a full mile in before I had to shut down. I’ll get there i know i will, but it stung a little to see it laid out there as plainly as it was. I guess that’s a good thing though, it keeps me from lying to myself about what i’ve realy accomplished. so be it…getting up early for a run or a swim, haven’t decided yet. I’m still about 6 weeks away from the first event, even though it’s short i can’t kid myself, I still need to get some better training in.
