rebirth

As you can see its been a long time since my last post. I have been remiss is all aspects of plans.

During the last year I lost my coach and shifted to an online forum based service. This for me was a disaster. I'm not a poster. Shocking I know. For me I want feedback and if I'm paying someone I don't want to have to search it out. So for now I will be self coaching and this will probably make me a better coached athlete in the future.

My diet had been going well until vacation where I fell off all the wagons. Dessert and wine are prominent in my daily vocabulary.

Todwy that all changes.

Alarm wwnt off at 4 AM. This time I didn't ignore it. And off for a run/walk. As I ease back into real training I will go slow and just repeat my week. I have been doing a fair amount of swimming and trail running but nothing structured.

Breakfast was a spinach omelet with avocado and some blueberries. So far the day is going as planned.

I simplified my life a little over the last months. I also took a technological backwards step. No longer can I receive email on my blackbery. I had become too available. Now I will read and respond to email once daily. It was nice last week on vacation. I'm interested to see how it translates to "normal" life.

Also. I'm moving to the mountains. We close on our new house on Wednesday. The house is totally off the grid. Solar and propane with a wood stove. The neighbors seem great so far. It will he an adventure for the family and I will have more to say on that I'm sure.
