Thursday June 20th - 65 days out

I'm struggling with motivation and stressing about being under prepared for the race this year.  The training plan I'm using has a TON more volume than last year and its been very hard to keep up with work and life getting in the way! Ha!!!  In addition my diet has went to shit for the last couple weeks and I've gained 8+ pounds putting me farther away from the 175 number I told myself I wanted to race at.  So, I've decided to now us this blog as a daily journal to help keep me motivated over the next 65 days.  Thought it may also be a cool insight for others to see what it is like to go thru this.

Weight: 187.8 lbs

Diet: Okay, splurged a little on dinner at Qdoba

Scheduled Training: 1:15 swim and 1:45 strength bike session.

Actual Training:  1 hour bike strength session

Life:  Tired after business trip to San Antonio, Kristin had a bible study from 7:30 to 9:00.  I rode the bike from 7:30 to 8:30 while watching the kids.  Planned to jump on the treadmill when Kristin got home but it was slipping real bad and I wasn't feeling it.  Fell asleep while watching the 3rd quarter of the NBA Finals. 

I've decided to make this a recovery week and redo this week next week.  Also thinking about switching plans...
