Not really a vent, but it's been a long race season this year. I'm looking forward to the off season.

Any AW's or brags? I'll finish in the top 10 in my division for the cyclocross series. I'm happy with that this year considering I've had some challenges this fall.

My goal is to keep up a good running and strength base over the winter, and to stay healthy. I think my foot is finally almost healed, but now I have a small hamstring strain. Why is something always wrong?

Right now I have a 25k trail run in January. I’m technically signed up for 50k but that’s not happening.


Training schedule for the week?
Umm
It’s been a busy week. Also I turned off my alarm today and didn’t run. Busy tomorrow night, wedding Friday and husband works all weekend, sooooo

I really wanted to make a nutrition plan work but it was just way too intense. I have a couple of other options I might go for. For now just rating template foods and meal prep.


Any AW's or brags?
I’m 12 weeks post tummy tuck/mommy makeover. I’m able to run 8 easy and could do more but haven’t pushed it.

I'm almost ready to sign up for a late spring 70.3 but I want to be 100% on board mentally. Training for a marathon through winter sucked last year and tri training will be a whole different level.

I got back in the pool for the first time in a year and a half this weekend and I actually enjoyed it!

I PR'd my 5k on Thanksgiving. By a lot. It's probably the pace I SHOULD be running 5ks at, but I haven't run a 5k (as a race) in like 3 years. So I'm pretty excited that all my training is paying off.

- I started going to a new PT, and while I thought he was awesome, I've been doing my in-office sessions with a PTA, and I don't feel like I've improved one bit. I'm frustrated.
