In a sway of determination last summer, I signed up to compete in a race that has become the headline of my bucketlist: an IRONMAN.
Naturally, I decided to sign up for the race closest to home: IRONMAN St. George. Like all natural-procrastinators, I thought to myself, "I've got a year to train. I can do anything in a year, especially prepare for an Ironman."
My 6-month mark came, and I completed about 6 weeks of full-training. I didn't miss a workout, I committed and recommitted, and began to see my racing times dropping. Things were going as expected. And then, as it always seems to go-- life had a change.
The office for my job was relocated, and I now take a bus to and from work everyday, leaving at 6am and returning at 6pm (on good days). Two months later, and only 4 months from race day, I'm recommitting again. We'll see how it fares this time around, now that I've 'adjusted' to my schedule.
