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.

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 natu...

"But seek no haven in my shadow, I will give you no hiding place here. You, created only a little lower than the angels, have crouched too long in the bruising darkness have lain too long facedown in ignorance.  your mouths spilling words. Armed for slaughter.
