I have not quit blogging.

I have just been busy with work and travelling. I was in Boston and Conn. on the weekend. I did go a couple of runs; once was along the Charles River in Boston which was fun because it is busy. I saw a lot of rowers in the river and there was some sort of running team that flew by me. On the Saturday I went for a nice 45 min run in the backroads of Connecticut. It was snowing there on Sunday which prevented another run. Otherwise, I am trying to get caught up at work; teaching a night course for UPEI and getting ready for winter. I am doing my spin class twice a week and running when I can. I swam about 1800 metres this morning with the main set being 3 sets of 4 -100's getting faster each set. I was thinking if its not raining on the weekend, I may dress warm and go for a road bike ride or a mountain bike ride (on a trail not an obstacle course)
I bought this month's triathlon magazine on the way home yesterday and got a bit motivated just by reading some articles on training in the winter. It mentioned for example with indoor cycling that the key is to set up a pleasant environment- ie a place with a tv, fan or whatever else you want. I have that but i need a dvd player for my old tv that I use. I am going to put that on my list.
