I just reviewed my last entry, and it seems so ambitious and on-task. I was really kicking a** for a couple weeks. The problem is that lately I've had to deal with the end of school stuff, along with coaching a swim team in the afternoons for the past two weeks, so my weekday workout time is virtually non-existent. I know, "wake up early and get out there!" one might say. Well, I've tried with mild success, but I'm so exhausted from waking up at 5:30 on normal days, that the prospect of an even earlier wakeup call is daunting, to say the least. Now I know that 140.6 miles is also daunting, but for whatever reason it doesn't always prove enough to get me out of bed at 4. My fault entirely. Which has led to some lackluster weeks of training, and, consequently, my feeling lackluster during those workouts. This weekend marks the end of these crazy weeks, so I plan on getting back on the train and knocking out these last couple big volume weeks in preparation for taper and race day. |
