Post-IMCDA blues?

Congrats on your IM finish!!!!!!!!!  Was this your first?

Last year after IMKY I was on an amazing high, for weeks!  Just knowing I had accomplished such an amzing goal that took months of training, just had me on cloud 9.  I took one day off from training, the day after the race and then continued training/staying active.  I really enjoyed not being on a training plan, just waking up and saying to myself "what do I feel like doing today?"  Sometimes it was a swim, bike or run and other times, a long walk or a hike or some strength training.  It's still early in the season, maybe do some shorter distances and focus on speed rather than endurance.

Congrats again!  Welcome to the family, Ironman!

Sign up for another one..    

 

I'm there with you I didn't think that would happen to me but it did.  so, I got to planning more races! I signed up for augusta 70.3.  I think I needed the continued excitement of training, its weird to stop right in the height of tri season. you can commiserate with me, I feel the same way. hang in there and take some time to refocus on what's important... whether or not that includes racing.
