PK and a few thoughts pre camp

meeting PK was like seeing the bright light to the gates of heaven.  he is hands down the best spin instructor out there and has managed to work my butt to a much smaller size then it was pre pk.  the rest of me well, i still love my vino and cookies so i'm working on it.   i leave for training camp the day after tomorrow and i'm having that "in over my head feeling".  the fact that my favorite tri store got hit by the recession and had to close didn't come as a good sign either.

55 minutes with PK and i was feeling back to normal.  i hit the treadmill for a 20 minute quick run and then headed off to class.  lately, i've been having a mix of emotions when it comes to this training camp.  it doesn't help that 22 of the 23 people attending profiles pictures on facebook include them at a finish line and the one that isn't is sitting in an ice bath.  good thing i took the one down of me at ally's fire pit sipping vino and eating marshmallows!

its mind over matter for me at this point,.  i'm counting on my mental strength to get me through this weekend.  four days of non stop training.  to date my biggest nightmare was when Mr. T used to make us run until he said stop with our lacrosse sticks in the air, that was almost 20 years ago. i'm pretty sure i'll have a new "nightmare" by the time the weekend is through.

less than 100 days to go until the actual ironman and i found a mantra, its a personal one so i won't share but it will get me through the steepest of hills, i'm sure of it.

 i'll be making updates, if i'm still alive, from st. george this weekend so wish me luck.  i'll need it!
