Back to Training!



Triathlon season is here again.  I am taking the TRI201 class at Fleet Feet this year  The goal race is the Guntersville Olympic.  Our first session was on Tuesday.  We had to do a timed 5K to see where we are in our training and so we can be separated into groups.  My performance was dismal!  My time was 6 minutes slower than at the end of last year.  I was very disappointed.  Although, I should have expected it.  I hate to make excuses, but I did have shoulder surgery about 5 weeks ago, and have not done any training what-so-ever since then.  I don't know how it is going to turn out, but I will give it my all.

I am also a coach/mentor this year for TRI101.  I am really excited about it.  I just hope I can do as good a job as my coaches did last year.
