I’m 6 weeks out from my 1st half Ironman. I’m
going to need to swim 1.2 miles, bike 56 miles, and then run 13.1….and I am
starting to panic!!! The bad thing about having a big event like this in March
is that training should get started back in October….and it did….however
the eating right part never really happened for me. I went on vacation in
October ate and drank like it, then my birthday was in November and being
lucky enough to have good friends….I celebrated all month long, then there was
Thanksgiving, Christmas and New years where I once again drank too much and ate yummy
stuff. So all that to say….I didn't lose the weight I wanted to and am now
feeling fat and not in nearly good enough shape to rock a 70.3 mile
event. Oh well.
Tomorrow I need to pull off all 3 distances...so that means about 8/9 hours of solid workout...I'm pretty sure I'll be eating an entire cow by end of day...right before passing out....preferably in an ice bath so I can actually move on Sunday.
I've been told by one or two people that I deliberately let the weight stack up on my bones to keep men from looking at me and wanting me...I don't know if that's right or not but Wow...losing it is a pain. For whatever reason I haven't been able to get these pounds off and keep them off. But I've decided that this is the year it's gonna happen...this is the year I'll be able to look at myself in the mirror and think..."Damn I'm one hot sexy lady!!!" :)
Step one...make it through tomorrow without dying. Step two...fuck step two...just get through tomorrow and then we'll talk. I hope you all have a great weekend.
Step one: CHECK! You did it!!!! :)
