Getting the rust off

Run - 3 miles

After losing lots of motivation to even walk down the street, much less train for a tri, I am beginning to win the mental battle. I watched an incredible video about training excuses that kicked me in the gut...

So when my alarm went off yesterday morning at 6:15, I tossed and turned for 15 minutes throwing some of these same excuses around. But eventually I pulled myself out and got moving. I was pretty encouraged by my 3.5 mile run. I only had a banana in my belly, and was still able to average 8:30/mile over that distance. It's been a little too long since I pushed myself.

But tonight is the stationary bike and tomorrow is time in the pool. I am trying to get back on my schedule.
