Subject: RE: Ironman Louisville : Official ThreadHow about New Year's resolutions? I have a couple: First - I "listened to my body" really well in training this past year. So well, in fact, that looking back I realized I pretty much just wussed out on a LOT of my long or hard workouts. This year I resolve to push through the pain and not use listening to my body as a lame excuse. Second - I resolve to go and find some hills to ride on for a long ride at least 3 times every 2 months. I know that isn't a lot, but I only went to find hills 3 times all of last season, and only one of those (when I actually rode the IMLOU course ) was a long ride. Living in central Indiana I normally ride on the flattest roads imaginable, so I did struggle some in Louisville. Thrid (and most challenging ) - I resolve to focus on my nutrition and maintain a healthy diet. I am one of thosse athletes who works out so I can eat, and I eat garbage! I have more desert than dinner, and the dinner is often no better than a big mac. I love to eat greasy food and junk food, but I am really going to try to improve. |
