I’ve been distracted leaning up to this
race (the race is this Sunday!). Now
that it’s only a few days away I’m feeling anxious and unprepared. A couple of weeks ago I was in a boating
accident and I hurt my knee. I haven’t
been able to run. I’ve also been working
on my dissertation. I successfully
defended my dissertation last week but I’ve been making the final edits. So this race kinda snuck up on me. My knee is better but I haven’t run since
April 12 and I’m concerned. I know that I’m
going to give it my all this weekend, I’m just plain ole competitive (even if
it is with myself). But I know that the
end goal is Ironman on May 16.
The KNEE. I’m heartbroken about this injury. I just can’t believe it happened, it seems so
unfair. It appears like this year’s
Ironman is going to be like last year; it’s going to be about overcoming
obstacles. But that’s the spirit of
Ironman!
Overall, I’m excited about IM 70.3 Galveston. NET has a huge group racing so it will be fun
to get to hang out with fellow athletes and friends. My wonderful husband and I are also making a
long weekend out of it. We are staying
at Moody Gardens and at my Aunt’s beach house.
After months of grueling and time consuming training we are looking
forward to this mini vacation!
