The Comeback....

Wow, it's been a while since I've raced or even trained with any intensity. I have been back in the pool for the last 2 weeks and I feel like all of my extremities have a mind of their own and let's not even talk about my breathing. I think I've swallowed more water in the last two weeks than most humans drink in a year. I'm starting to feel the stroke and the comfort level return. I've put a few miles on the running shoes again too. It's almost humiliating because I have tons of great tri/cycling gear and I feel like a poseur now since I'm out of shape and gasping for air. Although the beginning of any training is tough, it is starting to feel really good to train. I can recognize certain things in my body and I just feel so much better. The training has also helped clean up my diet and has definitely helped my sleep and mood. The gf is very supportive, she's heard all of the stories about how fit and fast I was and I think she's ready for some proof. We're going to go see the TX Tough GP on Thursday so I'll be sure to post some pics of the race. That's all for now.
