Update

It's been quite awhile since I've updated this blog. I am in limbo right now. i haven't decided whether I am going to back out of doing IM Canada 2008 or not. I don't have to make a decision I suppose right up until the race but I need to figure out what I want to do and how much time I want to give training right now.

I just want to spend my time with E'llee right now. I want to be able to spend as much time as possible with her and devoting huge amounts of time and energy into training right now doesn't seem like it's really how I want to spend my time right now.

I know that in just a couple months I'll be much more able to take her with me on bike rides because she will be more able to feed herself if i put her in the trailer and we go out for rides. Right now I think I can get away with 90 minutes but that is probably about it.

We'll see. I'm setting much shorter term goals right now like losing a few pounds and getting back into my exercise regimen and logging regimen. Since my shoulder it has just been more difficult than usual getting myself into a routine. Also now that I work from home it makes it difficult there too in that I have done a superb job of integrating exercise and commuting but now it's like I have to start figuring it out again.

Tuesday I am going to go swim in the morning. And, I think I may try to run afterwards too and then work. Steph will be home with E'llee so I have no reason to get back immediately. So that might work out really well for me for awhile. Ihope that works because that will make a big difference.
