Scared...Obsessed...Determined

Scared.  Over a week ago, I started putting together an overall training plan for Ironman Texas in May. It was a time consuming but distracting adventure. I vaguely plotted my key workouts for swim/bike/run for the entire 24 weeks of my training plan. The planning began because other athletes started posting their workouts and plans for their training...reminding me that I hadn't started training or planning.

I will be here again! You are an Ironman!!!
Obsessed. Last night I became obsessed with plotting each and every workout session on my personal calendar. I usually plan my workouts, like I would plan any other meeting. This was simply an extension of that planning and included more detail. I have been reluctant to plan my schedule because I knew it would be a daunting task with the shorter amount of available time for training, my work keeps getting in the way of my training!

Determined. With my carefully laid plans, I am determined to get my key workouts completed each week. With my workouts identified, my husband will be able to keep me accountable. He appreciates the forewarning of major workouts and enjoys playing "coach" for me.
