Training troubles

After a long, snowy and depressing winter...Spring/Summer has finally arrived!  

My home projects have been moving along.

First, I got myself a new couch!  

Old couch

New Couch

I love my new couch!  It is comfortable and it matches my taste way better then my old couch.  

Once the snow melted and the weather started to warm up, I began to start my training... or so I thought. This school year has left me worn out and exhausted.  I am suffering from the same symptoms as over training, without the actual training.  UGH!  The good news is I will be able to get back on track in 7 days!  School will be out for the summer and I will be less stress!  YAY!!  The other day my friend posted that my big race is 100 days away!  I better get moving in the pool, on the bike and running!  

Thank goodness for friends... 

These weekend bike rides have made a world of a difference.  This is the only part of my training that I feel is on track a bit.  

I also have started running with a group on Thursdays!  We have had soo much fun on our Thursday night runs. 

As the school year comes to a close. I have learned a lot about myself and stress!  I am learning as I get older.  I need more sleep!  Also as my job gets crazier I have to give something up to be able to survive and get more sleep, and that thing is workouts. 😞 It doesn't make me happy but it's all about survival. 

Next year, I hope to have a few more things under control, so I will have less stress and be able to keep up with my workouts because it does make me happy.  

Now that summer break is in sight. I hope my next post will be full of training stories.  Not just home projects.  

This is My latest project I did was tile my backsplash in my kitchen.

I love it! This is one of my last home projects. Now my focus can hopfully switch from home projects and school to training. With the end of school next week, my plan is to train more that two days during the week and during the weekend.  

I will keep you posted...
