An alternative title for this post could be "Deja Vu, All Over Again!" I'm fairly certain this has been a recurring theme throughout the past 10 months.
I woke up this morning tired. It isn't so much the training that has me wore out. It's Vacation Bible School. Getting up at 4:30 a.m. is something to which I've grown accustom. Running out the door for training as soon as I get home is also familiar.
Running out the door to get to VBS, helping there until 8:15, fighting kids into cars, and battling with B-Boy and Monster Girl to get them into bed two hours late, not so much.
So, when I woke up this morning, no sooner had I made it to the bathroom then I decided that today was a good day to reset the alarm clock and go back to sleep. After two swim sessions, yesterday (my normal session and training with tri club kids), the last thing I wanted to do was get back into the pool. And the sleep would do me good.
Then, I put on my swimsuit, grabbed my gear, and headed out the door. Ironman is less than four weeks out, and I can sleep after I've crossed the finish line. There's very little forging of iron accomplished by sleeping through training sessions.
And at the end of the day, it was a VERY good swim session.

You are going to kick BUTT in KY!
Take Care
Mind over matter...if you don't mind, it doesn't matter.....
Having done and Ironman and chaperoned a group of young kids before... I can say for certain, that training for an Ironman is easier.
You're on the right track. Keep working.
Stay tuned...
That's just great! :-) Keep it going, 4 weeks to the big thing!
Way to get it done, IP!
Keep up the good work. On all fronts.
