The triathlon is done. I'm sure if you read this, you also read my family blog. If not, here is a recap.
I have a hard time once I've accomplished what I've been training for because I feel like, "what's next?" and if there isn't anything, it's harder to find the motivation to work out hard. But right now, luckily I have the 4 mile turkey trot to look forward to. I ran the 5k in the triathlon so much faster than I normally do so I'm excited for this next run. But after Thanksgiving, then what? I'll find something. I did make a goal to run a half marathon before I turned 30, so maybe I will start looking for one of those.
Charlotte turned one on the 5th and I decided it was time to start weaning her, where did my full boobs go? so sad.

My trainer friend that has helped me a lot to get this weight off is planning a post holiday weight loss plan and I'm trying out her 6 day eating program for her. I'm on day 5 and am down to 174.6, this is progress :). I've been hanging out at the same weight for so long. But at the same time, it was nice to know I could eat how i wanted, workout hard (which I enjoy) and maintain. I just have to decide if I want to stay where I am. Which by the way, I have more confidence in my body than you might think. I don't mind looking how I do, I can buy normal clothes. But I think I'd like to get down to 170 because that is what I was after Cloe and it would be something cool to accomplish. But the boobs, the poor sad boobs that lead (because you always lose those first) you through weight loss.

peace out.

Where The Wilds Things Are said...

The city of Monticello (near Moab) hosts a triathlon the first week of March each year. It is called the Blue Mountain Triathlon. Instead of the swim you cross country ski. You mountain bike for 18 miles and run 5 or 6 miles. Cory participated a few years ago when the bike portion was a 36 mile road bike ride. They had to change the course last year. It is really fun, but you have to stay overnight in Monticello and you will need a someone to drop you off and pick you up. The local boy scouts help with support if you don't have any. If you are interested go to monticelloutah.org Oh, and it is only $30 to register.
The Little Red Riding Hood ride is super fun too. It is held the first week in June, in Cache Valley. It is an all womens bike ride. You don't have to have a road bike, and you can choose your distance...anywhere from 15-100 miles. I will let you know the details when they send me registration info.

my progress
