I trained like a mad woman. I was in the pool so often that one of the ladies mentioned it just last week. I RAN. I hate running... but I was running more than I ever had. I was two weeks away from my triathlon and I got mono. Not just mono... In-the-hospital mono.
I was weak and lost most of my training... So I walked into the check-in and took my swag and left. It was a sad day. My friend brought me to Tasty Taco to make me feel better. It helped.
This year, I'm hesitant to set any resolutions. I usually resolve to make good decisions weekly, if not daily. I haven't decided if I want to tackle a tri again... and I haven't recovered from my traumatic RAGBRAI experience quite yet. And a whole year seems so daunting, if not easy to procrastinate.
So my resolutions for this year are monthly. I will:
-Try a new workout every month
-Give a little something every month
-Learn about something or someone new every month
-Pay off my debt (by paying a little each month.)
I was in the best shape of my life last summer. And I hope to mimic that this year with daily decisions to eat right and workout like I'm training for something.
