On the mend.

It has almost been two weeks since I last was able to workout. I came down with a nasty chest cold right after Christmas and have been out of commission since. Today was the first day I woke up and didn't have to cough up a lung. I am starting to get really antsy not being able to train but I think tonight might be the right time to give it a go. Physically I haven't felt that bad, other than the sore lower back and abdominal muscles. My core strength shouldn't have lost much over the last two weeks.
I can't wait to get back to my regular routine and start feeling fit again. I am going to start adding some regular testing for all three sports in the coming month and will post the details of the tests soon. It is really important to have some data to compare to as training gets more intense to make sure I am moving forward in my performance gains and not backward.
The race is now 189 days away.
