As The Training World Turns

For awhile I thought I was going to bail from the challenge of doing a Sprint Triathlon. What was I thinking about doing this. I started running and my legs hurt, really, really bad. My bike broke and I thought I couldn't afford either to fix it nor get another one. My self drive was shot, so I started to give up. Then, Lesley told me how much we were getting back from the IRS, and she said I could go get my Tri-Bike. Ok, there's the money, but my legs still hurt and I don't have my Mojo. Then I hooked up with a group on www.beginnertriathlete.com .. I joined a mentor group. It's actually pretty cool. They take one seasoned triathlete and put them with 10-12 beginners. All of which have different skills to share. some are strong swimmers, but not runners nor bikers, some are strong runners and not, well you get my point. They have shown me that I started running to aggressive, hence leg pain. They helped show me how to start a strong running base. Since my legs and back don't hurt anymore. Actually when I'm done running I feel like I could go much further, but I hold back as to let my running base get built and not burn myself out. GREAT, now all I have left is to work on my Mojo. Not back 100%, but since I've gotten the endorphans moving it's coming back. Hopefully once I get my bike and start swimming I'll put me over the edge and I'll be back once again, full of Mojo, and ready to conquer the World....
