First off the past 2 months have been for the most part uneventful. Training has been steady but slowly picking up steam, motivation has been a yo-yo but controlled. Since 70.3 Vegas I have been dealing with some hip/IT band issues that have sidelined the run or kept my runs to a minimal. I have set the bar high for myself in the 2012 season especially on the run. Not coming from a swimming, biking or running background I feel that I have been playing catch-up with the other competitors that do walk in with multiple backgrounds. But its the run that I know I can make the most ground on of the three. So for the past few months I have been working closely with my boss/mentor John Weirath here at The Bicycle Studio. Having his knowledge and input has really helped move me forward in my running ability and with his PT background he has helped quite my hip/ITB issue. I hope to continue with John, knowing that he will be a vital-solution to my success next year and years to come.
Here's a look at my 2012 schedule. Some races I have already signed up for and a few I'm currently still collecting soda-cans in order to pay off the entry fee. I may add or take a few away. But in 5 months time I hope to be on the starting line of my first Ironman. Until next time.
