I have still not kicked the Holiday routine...er rut. Although I did finally sleep last night and got up at 5am this morning...that's an improvement. Since I am like most people, I imagine that I can do ANYTHING and EVERYTHING...and instantaly and/or all at once. But I can't. I am human. And when it's time for the "rubber to hit the road" or rather my feet to hit the bike pedals or pool water or road (or treadmill)...I often balk...especially at 5am in the morning on a cold and wintery morning.
Last night I was supposed to go swimming. But it had started to snow heavily and I had the feeling of an encroaching cold. All sufficient excuses to make me stay home, watch a stupid movie (with lots of hot bodied swimmers) and go to bed. The only good news is as mentioned above, I slept. My first night all week.
Now, this morning, having successfully gotten up at 5am (although my routine and goal is 4 or 4:30am), I am just not motivated to leave the warmth of my cozy house; slip on biking gear and go join my group of fellow crazy triathletes for 90-minutes of computraining. Since that class starts in five minutes and it's 20+ minutes away...I guess I am not going! :(
SO...now I have to make-up today's biking and yesterday's swim! And my legs are still stiff/sore from my measly 3km run two days ago. ARGH...time for some motivation!
