Plodding towards my Path With Heart

[SuperDad]

Hi Donna,
Thanks for the words of wisdom. The convo yesterday did leave me wound up and I did not get enough sleep last night, esp. with a 4 a.m. alarm! Anyway, I will call IC for an appt. to discuss this issue as well as the kids.

As far as the race, it is Nov. 9th, so we have started our taper...basically workouts get shorter, but more intense, with a few long, easy workouts in between. It is a strange feeling, sometimes you get lethargic and other times you are bouncing off the walls with energy.

I'm feeling more optimistic about meeting my goal time this time...one of my original goals when I started DBing was to beat my best time from when I was 20! I have gotten within 7 minutes, but haven't been able to break through...hopefully this will be the race.

Either way, it has been so much fun getting to know the group of people in this club and to get back into top shape. That has been one of the upsides of this sitch...since I am not spending all of my time trying to make W happy, I have been able to make a lot more "me" time. Yeah, me!

Take care, SD
