Happy Monday!
It’s hard to believe I got back from vacation over a week ago…
It was a whirlwind, amazingly fun, five-day trip which I’ll post pics and details on about soon. I event kept up with my workout schedule on vacation and added about a half day’s walking around Boston to the list!
In the meantime, let’s talk about how something happened last week that has had me kind of… stressed out.
I got sick.
I got a cold that started with a sniffle, then became a day of sneezes, which then morphed into a sinus headache and congestion, and made its way down into my lungs where it settled for several days.
All of this, just over a week before my first triathlon.
Seriously???
Luckily, after a week of rest, taking vitamins, and good eating, my cold is on it’s last legs. (Phew!)
So now into my last five days before the race, I am working to kick the last bits of the cold out of my system and get back up on my workouts.
Some exciting news from this past weekend will add a new dimension to my out-of-the-gym workouts, but more on that later.
