With baby's imminent arrival upon us, I am beginning to think of the future a little and my next athletic endeavour.
I have been really missing a "normal" workout; and have been definitely missing my long runs! I cant wait for the day I can throw my running shoes on and pound some pavement!
Now I am trying to figure out what it is I would like to set me eyes on for this year. Aside from running a few marathons and halves, I am setting something bigger in my mind...all things baby going well.
I know that life with three is going to be DRASTICALLY different than the two, so in my plans I need to think logically. What can we as a family afford, not only financially but in time, to train for and accomplish.
I have two races in my heart... and not sure if either will fly quite yet; but here's to hoping, with a goal.
Hawaii 70.3 Ironman
or
TransRockies Solo3... I would love to do the partner 6 day- but I think that at this point, that would not only be selfish... but likely, my husband would divorce me after +1 week with 3 kids! The 3 days looks a little more "doable."
Has anyone done either of these with any words of wisdom or thoughts?!
Bring on the post natal fitness, baby, dreams and goals.
