Happy to Train

I am not sure why, but it takes me forever to get myself together and motivated to go work out. For some reason I dread doing it, even though when I am doing it (except maybe the running) and after I feel great!  You’d think after awhile I would make the connection between feeling great and motivating myself to work out, but nope.  To some degree I am almost glad I have to set my temporary basal an hour and a half before I exercise, since then I have to do it.

I’ve had some ups and downs in training lately. Not horribly up or horribly down though, so that’s good I guess. One nice thing was that I got to ride in Bike the Drive/Tour de Cure with other WILD women. Jennifer, Lorrie, Susie, Catherine and myself all met at the start.  It was great getting to meet them, and really nice being able to ride that distance with people. I was able to keep up with them for about the first 9 miles or so. I hadn’t ridden my bike that far yet (30 miles). And I passed a ton of people!

I am so looking forward to Camp WILD in Boulder, CO this year.  I'm excited about getting face to face time with team members, coaches and medical professionals.  I've developed a list of questions all centered-around training because this season has been a mix of joy and frustration.  I'm turning 40 this year and this season has come with a few health changes.  Changes I can't decipher or validate but I know are present so the camp comes right when I need it!  Although this training season has been tough I feel lucky to say this experience has made me look at other sports like cyclocross and obstacle course racing so I look forward to using what I learn at camp as a template for the new sports I will attempt later this year.  Even the tough times bring about change and the opportunity for new adventures!
