Do You Want It or NOT?



It has been a while since I've posted. Life gets busy and things get left behind. But as I get deeper into my preparation for race day on October 1, 2016 I realize that I cannot miss these opportunities to chronicle what I started.

 So, here I am 6 weeks out to race day, with long swims, long runs, long bikes and long bricks which equate to tired body. This is the time frame in which skipping a training day will come at a cost. And that cost could be your mental game and/or getting behind on miles. Either one equates to consequence that will show up on race day. 

 Having been in the sport for the past 4 years I definitely understand how this can consume your life. But this race distance of 140.6 is a whole other animal. This IS my life right now! Everyday is a strategic plan to arrange my work and personal life to fit my training schedule and my energy levels. But I am managing. I'm committed to what it takes to achieve this goal I set for myself.

Associative Color : Red Central focus:  Primal fears, survival, abandonment, physical needs and safety, nourishment, self-preservation, tribal power, lessons related to material and physical identity, loss of money, the need for logic, order and structure, the inability to ground and form boundaries.   The first chakra relates to our emotional and mental health. It is our primal instinctual connection to being alive and to

"The only thing that is constant is change."

    The intension of this blog is to share information, contemplate life and to ask questions.  I do not claim to have any answers to these questions I ask. The only answers I have are to my own personal beliefs, which can sometimes change daily based on any given experience .    I s change the initiation for chaos?  Do we seek transformation or does transformation seek us? Transitions, letting go, surrendering to what cannot be controlled. "Everything must stay the same" a mantra that we all live with inside the human condition of the ego. If you think you can escape this, look again. "Yes, I want change to happen, I understand that it needs to happen but please don't let everything turn to chaos." Again I ask, is chaos the initiation to transformation?  Change moves us from one pattern into something new. In this process a pattern must be broken for the new pattern to be created. When something breaks, fragmentation occurs. The law of natural order. This
