Usually by now I am deep into the off season, resting on my laurels with a solid tri season behind me. This year is different. I've got an "A" race in November, my 50th state. Since there are 22 people joining me for this big event, I want to show up lean and mean and strong and put on a good show. Actually I am not doing it for anyone else; I am just incredibly competitive. In order to keep my motivation strong for the next six weeks, I decided to take a weekly cross-training class with some of my swim buddies Fit For Life is where I will be on Wednesday nights for the next six weeks. It's not rocket science but it will propel me to do the stuff I hate the most and at a level that I would never do myself. We'll see how it turns out. Today I am sore from last night's workout... inner thighs and some ribs but I think it'll all be worth it. In the meantime, have a safe and wonderful holiday weekend.
