doesn't look good

There is so much speculation concerning the upcoming 2020 triathlon season.  Every time the question is raised there are soooo many opinions as to what will happen. One thing for sure....

No One Knows For Sure What Is Going To Happen!!!

I'm so sick and tired of not just the speculation but the opinions and comments.

We race primarily DelMo Sports events.  There is no argument that this organization is a top of the pile class act. Steve keeps everyone informed to the best of anyone's ability with the most accurate and precise information available. There is no speculation, no opinion, just straight facts.

I'm on the fence as far as this year goes. Right before the gyms closed I was already throttling back due to problems with my knees. Since we've been on 'lockdown' I've pretty much been a slug. I have no excuse for not getting on my bike on the trainer.

I have a long, long hill to climb. First the rotator cuff tear, surgery and recovery...then the weight gain...then when I finally get back to the gym I experience damage to the head of my tibia and what appears to be some tearing of the meniscus in both knees...then we go into lockdown. I was already having motivation issues but this just plain sucks.

So here's what I want to do, need to do.........

First I need to get the bike set up on the trainer and start riding again. There's no excuse for not putting in lots of hours a week on that.

Next I need to get out and run. I can run in the forest where I won't run into anyone. I have to watch David almost all of the time but with the daylight starting earlier and earlier I could get out at first light.

Then I should start exercising, especially the 'dry land' exercises for swimming that have been posted on  line.

Finally, I need to stop eating like a pig and start eating correctly. That's the easiest thing on the list.

I just need to take that step off of the ledge...again.
