I am a procrastinator at heart.   I'm truly a pro at putting things off so I find my training to be no different.   However,  I'm starting to feel the heat as we are quickly counting down to the date of the triathlon. 

Speaking of procrastination I meant to write last week.  I had an uncomfortable run with my training partner Shelly on Wednesday.   I had been sick the week before and I guess it just took me a while to get back in the groove.   We ran two miles and the goal was no walking.   At 1.5 miles I had to walk.  I can make a lot of excuses but basically I felt pathetic.    I swam that night and also felt really sluggish. 

I took a rest day on Thursday and on Friday decided to run four miles.   I feel ashamed to even say that because I have several friends who are running marathons and half marathons.  They are really cranking out some miles!   I guess you have to start somewhere though.

My four mile run went surprisingly well considering my flop on Wednesday.   Because of my knee issues I tried to run on the grass as much as possible.  There was definitely some walking involved but overall I felt pretty good about it.     I did a five mile mt. bike ride on Sunday and swam yesterday.  Today I'm hoping for another 4 mile run.
