HAPPY WEDNESDAY GUYS! Ahhhh! We made it! It's all downhill from here (and that's GREAT news when it comes to running and biking). 😄
No matter what goes on in our lives, it's important to live in the moment and to focus on what's important to us. It's important to appreciate the time we spend doing what we do, whether that's work (or an aspect of work), learning new skills at the track with friends, picking up a new hobby or attending a class. Lately, I've been thinking about keeping positive when overcoming obstacles, things we can control and things we can't, and pushing through it all.
This week's thoughts include:

There have been a few times in the past, like now, that I am getting ready to enter a race after having been sick for the last 2 ish weeks. I haven't been able to train, and instead have been focusing on taking medicine and getting better. I would have PREFERRED to not have been sick at all, but as you all know, we don't choose when we get sick, and NO time is a convenient time to catch a virus.
🙈🙉🙊
Going into this weekend I am preferring to focus on what I do have versus what I don't. I'm choosing to mark this occasion as my first workout of the year and do the best I can with it, with all my past training and knowledge to guide me. Just because you're not at your best each time, don't let it scare you away from competing. I think if I entered races only when everything was "perfect", the moon was in retrograde, blah blah blah blah, I would hardly be out there! One thing I DO have control over in this situation is my bed time, and because of a 6:30 a.m. flight tomorrow morning, that bed time will be at 8 p.m. 😴 Rest heals so much, and I plan to stock up!
