Not much to say here…
Lucy got new carbon fiber tubeless aero wheels.
HED 60 cm front / HED 90 cm rear
Now she looks badass! 👇🏽👇🏾

I was excited to finally be able to do a run performance assessment with coach @johnnyshelby_444.
But, Mr. hard head couldn’t be satisfied with improving while recovering! I had to push for 6 additional miles! That was just a little too much... because healing isn’t the same as healed 😕.
I’ll make tomorrow a recovery day.

8 miles of sunrise fun. I forgot to set the alarm, but thanks to @w00denteeth1 I’ve gotten good a doing a handspring out of bed 🤸and was able to catch the sunrise.
40 degrees at the start but it quickly warmed up so 6 miles became 8+ nice and easy miles 👍🏾.
My recovery is going well, so in a couple of days I’ll do threshold tests to reset my zones 🎉. Then I can start getting after it like the rest of you 👊🏽.

This morning’s swim was all about overcoming the voices of procrastination.
As soon as I woke up, the pillows conspired against me. Then, a little later, while drinking some coffee, my body reinforced the pillow’s message...go later, it’s cold outside, just wait until it gets warmer... blah, blah, blah.
Nope!
Allowing it once, becomes twice, then a week is lost 😡...the mental battle never ends.

1 hr run indoors today 🤦🏽. Wearing a mask while imitating a sprinkler is no bueno... I don’t enjoy gasping for air through wet face covering 😓🥴
The work is done. Next time, I’m going back outside.

These two photos hint at what a difference two years can make.
I’ve shed 40 LBS, developed a healthier mind & body while finding a renewed excitement and love of life.
Two years ago I decided that the present me didn’t have to be the future me. I began walking and making food choices one meal at a time. The changes snowballed and I began setting big ass goals.
With commitment, determination, the willingness to keep getting back up and ask for help, I’ve exceeded my own expectations.
Always be kind to yourself, you can do amazing things.

Today’s plan was an hour at zone 1. As I worked to keep my cadence high, It felt like I was gliding along the trail. I’d found a rhythm and tried to stay with it for as long as possible.
In the end, I knocked out a 5K PB AND chipped away at my fear of running faster 💪🏾.

I spent the morning dialing-in pace and form with some intervals on the VASA Erg. I prefer to swim in the actual water, but with the erg, I am able to train my body to feel pace in real-time. #formgoggles now do the same thing, but I don’t have them.
Stay productive and do what you are able, then push a little further 💪🏾.

Another successful day on the trail pushing myself a little harder. I was able to increase my run distance to 6 miles by maintaining a focus on quick turnover and smoother strides. No pain 🥳 at all!!! I’m coming back on-line and lovin’ it.
...stronger than yesterday

The 🐢 outgrew his shell today!!
After a 7.5 mile walk, I decided to test my body...I was bursting at the seems itching to get in a run.
Feeling like I was adequately warmed up, I focused on short steps with rapid turnover (180-185 cadence) to minimize the pounding and allowing my body to tell me how far I could go. After about a mile, I looked at my watch and was surprised that I was easily maintaining a 9:15/mile pace. No pain whatsoever!!!
I was so elated and filled with gratitude that my body was responding so well that I damn near started crying. However, At two miles I temporarily lost my mind...I considered pushing through to 15 miles 🙄. I felt that good in the moment. However, I quickly realized that I was being greedy and asking for trouble, so I stopped after 2.5 miles 🏃🏽♂️(11 total miles).
...stronger than yesterday

I get inspired by watching everyone start the year with such excitement and vigor 👊🏽.

After a refreshingly crisp walk watching the first sunrise of 2021, I knocked out a quick 🏊🏽♂️ session. I’m happy with my times and overjoyed to feel my mojo coming back. For the time being, I’m a 🐢on the track and a 🦈in the water 😊 and I’ll take it. I’m grateful for all of it.

5.5 miles with smiles in turbo 🐢 mode. We just beat the rain, but it didn’t matter. We train outside rain or shine.
It’s so inspiring to see all of you getting the most out of your day and putting in the work.
