A time with no stress…just fun times..A time when being active and healthy came naturally because it was fun to race down the street, swing from the monkey bars or dance the night away (and you didn’t need a few cocktails to brave the dance floor)….make it a goal to relive those times and you will be healthier and happier for it.

I’ve had quite a bit of cycling on the training calendar since I completed ironman texas back in May.  A big goal for me for ironman arizona is to cut some big minutes from my bike split.  I’ve always been a decent cyclist during my short and middle distance tri races but for my ironman or 140.6 distance races my bike split is ehhhhh. ..but I’m usually pretty happy with my swim and run times.  Fast forward to now…I’m trying to re incorporate some of my spinerval training dvds into my cycling program.  It helps remove the staleness that comes from my bike dungeon. .

It’s lovely don’t you think?  It’s actually pretty great..but regardless of the space I do need help with the motivation department and the Spinervals are my solution..They are basically my spin class at home.   I went on an over kill buying spree a couple years ago but I definitely have a variety to choose from…

How do you keep motivated? 

I have so missed my almost daily sushi fix. . So today was a welcome change.  I enjoyed getting my nails done and a yummy sushi lunch with my baby girl.
