Goodmorning!

wow... there is so many cool things going on around me all the time that i had my first bout of facing the challenge of staying focussed this year. I think that means that I need to make a weekly plan and stick to it, as well as have a monthly idea. This way I will get what needs to get done.

I'm also starting to recognize how important emotional stability will dictate my success at Ironman. Having and maintaining, and then getting over a relationship is impressively taxing. It would be so great to just let the ol' lover dissipate from my mind. I suppose i've got an injury- it's unwelcomed, changed my place of centredness/reference because I was sharing so much of my life with jon with so much satisfaction, and then the pains will just appear when you don't expect it- asking for extra time and care and gentleness by me.

What a crazy time of year as well- its so good to be back at school. I had to resolve with myself yesterday afternoon not to put so much pressure on myself. Its certain words from people that i let reverberate in my mind: credibility, the year to establish.... baH! time to shake that from my prerogative so I can just do what i'm good at doing. In the meantime I'm ready to commit to my planning- and I know that Ironman will help me stay focussed and organized.

I had an awesome yoga session this morning- I plan to ride my bike to Victoria tonight to see Jen, so I decided that I reall needed a good session. I added in some core strength excercises.

I'm really proud of myself for keeping so committed to the gluteus maximus (Bah! love this name!) excercises. I think my hip and lower back are quite vulnerable and I don't want to take any chances.
