Mileage (weekly / 2014) - 
  Swim - 0 / 0
  Bike - 44.08 / 74.58
  Run - 13.27 / 19.74

I've changed the way I'm going to report my stats, last week I just did total mileage but I would like to see what I do for all 3 areas.

Good week!  Got most of my workouts in and had a success weight loss week.  I didn't hit the pool at all! I know it's going to hurt and I think the fear that maybe a Dr is needed to look at my shoulder frustrates me.  I still plan to try for a couple of weeks to see how things go before reaching out to a Dr.

Got in a run outside as the weather has started to warm up.  We have a great neighborhood for running, very peaceful in the morning with little traffic.  Always nice to see the sun rising and challenge myself to run up the big hills!

Still need to work on getting the strength training into my schedule, again that shoulder issue is probably deterring this a bit.

This week is a big challenge, we will have company in town for the majority of the week and I know there will be several days we go out to eat.  My goal is to eat healthy at least 2 meals a day and stick to my workouts.  I know that I might not lose or possibly gain but I know that is part of life and I can't beat myself up if I'm not "perfect."

A week of crazy but still good miles

Week of 8/27/2012 - 9/2/20212 Exercise Walking - 0 General Walking - 27.95 miles Stationary Bike - 0 Weight loss - ?? I was a bit shocked that when I was finally able to look at my miles that I actually had 27.95 miles.  That is not a great week but considering that since Tuesday, August 28th we have been staying in a hotel and were driving from Maryland to Texas from August 29th - September 1st, I'm pretty happy with that. As I wrote in the last update, I knew it would be tough to get some exercise in last week and it was.  I decided that this was an adventure and a great opportunity to spend time with the hubby and I was going to enjoy our trip and worry about diet and exercise when we got to Texas and got settled in. The only bad thing that happened on our trip is that my fitbit , may be on its last leg.  I dropped the fitbit early last week and cracked the case and when I say cracked I can see the inside of the device.  Then towards the...

Race schedule set

Week of 12/31/2012 - 1/6/2013 Swimming - 2 Biking - 0 Running -2 Strength Training - 1 Weight loss for week - 0 Total weight loss - 27.5 As reported in the last post the past couple of weeks haven't been great workout weeks and no weight loss. But it happens right, no worries.  I'll get it back on track this week.  My back is feeling MUCH better so I'm going to do some strength training tomorrow and clearly I need to get back to biking.  My road bike is set up on the trainer between the living room and kitchen I just need to spend some time on it.  I've been very focused on swimming and running but need to make sure that I'm giving proper attention to the bike.  Plus with my back being sore I didn't want to make even more sore by getting on the bike. Along with this post you will see I have updated my race schedule.  Races fill up quick around here so I built in a back up race in case one of the races is full.  I've also been working on my 2...

7 weeks till 1st race

4/28/14 - 5/4/14 Swim - 2 Bike - 2 Run - 2 Strength Training - 2 Weight loss (weekly / year) - 0 lbs / 6.5  lbs Mileage (weekly / 2014)   Swim - 3500 yds / 34,800 yds      Bike - 53.5 miles / 584.98 miles   Run - 8.86 miles / 186.51 miles A friend reminded me this week that I have 7 weeks until my next race.  She asked me if I was ready and I said you bet.  I'm more confident than ever, so far.  I say that because often the week or 2 leading up to a race I fall apart and don't get all my workouts in but I need to stay on target with additional races to follow.  I'm confident that tomorrow I could do the Olympic distance. I want to beat my time from last year, which hopefully will be easy to do.  While my weight, currently, is slightly higher than it was last year for my race, I definitely feel more prepared physically and have been getting longer workouts in than I did last year.   This was a good week, the only thing I hav...
