First official week of training

So here are my original goals for this week....

Mon - 4k Run
Tues - 15 min Bike
Wed - 4k Run
Thurs - 20 min Bike
Fri - Rest
Sat - 6k Run, 15 min Bike
Sun - SWIMMING!!!

I did make it for my run last night but only managed 3.5K....Phil has my car today so I may have to do wednesday's run tonight and hoof it to the post office to pick up my Ironman training books. Should be a good hour run there and an hour back....will be interesting to see if I can make it or not!

We are officially signing up for the 10k on Monday (pay day) so then its official...I know a month is plenty of time to train....I just need to get up to that 10k distance and I will be fine!

I start my swimming lessons on Sunday and I cant wait!! I am going shopping for goggles this week and hopefully Phil is going to start swimming on Sunday too!

Part of me keeps thinking this will get easier, then I have to remind myself that this is only the beginning and I have a long way to go...my 'plan' is to get prepared for the ironman in time for the half ironman, so I will be able to perfom well and then its a matter of increasing my speed and stuff for the ironman next year....I am driven and cant wait to start seeing improvements.

This will be an interesting next two years for sure!
