Gearing up for spring

After Christmas every year, i seem to get a bit more enthusiastic about training. I am also getting excited about my upcoming trip to Tucson, Az. in February. The prospect of that has motivated me to get on my bike trainor. I have been doing some spinning at home on the weekends. Last week, I did 4 hot yoga classes, three swims, two runs, a spin class at the gym and a spin session at home. Bill, the swim coach, says my swimming is getting stronger and he is going to do a more specific triathlon plan for me when it gets closer to racing season. My friend, Bryon Howard from Calgary has introduced me to a triathlon coach in Tucson, who I am going to meet with when I am there and do some fitness testing. I have also agreed to hire him on a monthly basis for some programs and training advice.
