This Saturday was the first Computrainer class of the off season, these classes are invaulable. The structure is pretty good and you have the motivation of the group to push you when things start to get tough and take you to the next level.
The problem I am having is that I can not seem to get in to it yet this year. I am not sure if it is just the fact that I don't have some big goal like an Ironman or something but for some reason I just can't seem to get my ass in gear. I did the class on Saturday and the whole time I just felt like I wanted to get out of there. This could have been that it is still early and it was a lot of leg drills and easy riding and I don't really feel like it is worth it unless you are hammering it and putting in some hurt. I know it is early, I know you need to do this or you will burn yourself out but I need something to get me going, something to motivate me but I have yet to figure it out what that is.
It will come, it always does but I really need something to get the fire back. I am hoping that with the combo of swimming and the Computrainer classes starting up this will get things going.
If we get one more nice weekend I am going to take the tri bike out for one last 40 mile excursion outdoors and maybe a couple of loops on the mountain bike at Waterfall Glen, just for fun but also to add a little variety this early in the year to see if that helps.
In the mean time, I have enjoyed all the household projects we have been doing and the downtime to spend extra time with the family and watching the Hawkeyes climb to number four in the BCS. We may have to take a trip to Pasedena this January, but will it be on the 1st of Janurary or the 7th? Hopefully the 7th.
