Lately my triathlon training has been more than a little hit-and-miss. Hey, I get busy okay?

But I can’t use that as an excuse. Basically, I’ve been lazy. I’ve been sleeping in, making excuses and sitting on the couch. Not good. I’ve been embracing the whole rest period concept.

Not anymore.

Next week marks the start of my prep phase. Base season is about to begin. And, being a newbie to the sport, I need all the training I can get. I need to swim, cycle and run. I need to drop weight. I need to learn skills.

I also need to believe I can do it. It’s been the missing link for a long time. But now it’s time to stop being a big-girl’s blouse and just get in a do what I need to do. I have goals that are begging to be achieved!

I’m pumped and ready to roll!

Got myself an indoor trainer a couple of weeks ago. It means I can train at home on the bike while my little guy has a sleep. It’s brilliant, if not a tad boring.

So here I go. A full base season leading into the next competitive season. I’ll blog about it. My goals, my training, my nutrition. It won’t always be pretty, it won’t always be positive, but it will be real.

Wish me luck.
