Can't believe IMTX2018 is less than 90 days.
Even though I have completed 2 IMs, you still feel like it's your first, which for me is good. Never assume because you have done it once means you can do it again. I always try to put my best effort into training, not always successful, but never dwell. Just reflect and move on.
I have realized that more than ever I struggle to train on weekends. My time with the hubby and our furry baby is so precious to me and scarce during the week that I want to spend as much time with them as possible on the weekends. So I have decided to make some modifications to the schedule that will mostly allow me to limit weekend training to 1 day. The sacrifice to accomplish this is getting up earlier during the weekend to extend my workouts. Over the next 13 weeks, I will only have 3 weekends at 7 days s a week instead of 6.
My new nutrition plan (focus on protein and lower carbs/sugar) is working well, I wish I was losing more weight but I'm no feeling hungry. I have also experienced and improvement in workout nutrion in that I'm consuming less than last year during training. As I do longer sessions it will be interesting to see if this trend continues. I still need to keep an eye on this because I don't want to get into a situation where I bonk especially as the distances / time grow.
Still trying to focus on no nonsense - your problems are not mine!
