Summer's here!

3 weeks POST ironman....starting to get my groove back. I've gained 7 pounds and lost all will power with food! I went on my first bike ride and enjoyed it:) Run mileage is up to 6 miles:) Still swimming once a week at a maximum distance of 2000yds. Back on the schedule teaching indoor cycling.

On the calendar....Sprint triathlon in 2 weeks, definitely NOT going to be a podium finish but lots of friends will be racing too. Considering an olympic triathlon in August. Sprint triathlon in August, my annual race.  I have committed to a half ironman, Redman, in 15 weeks.

Exercise and Health: Well, turns out I am not the only person in my family that put on some pounds post-ironman. Bragging rights are on the line between the Hubby and myself. The contest started yesterday and will continue for 3 weeks. I'm HUNGRY!!! I have mapped out an exercise plan that takes into account the kid's schedule, vacations, and work-workouts. I can do this!!! I have willpower!!!

This could end up on my body permanently...time will tell. 

I put on a bikini for the first time since college this weekend. I am encouraged that I didn't look awful but challenged to look better! Would love to find the focus and strength to lose some additional pounds and enter a different decade on the scale! Adding some strength training and watching the diet should accomplish this goal...until then I will live the life I love and love the life I live!
