For those not in the know, my plans have changed.
My pursuit of another Ironman was terminated a few weeks ago. After some serious contemplation I decided that it would be better to drop Lake Placid from my schedule this year. With an increase in business at the store and the new addition to the family fast approaching I just could not find enough time in the week.
It had gotten to the point where I wasn't enjoying work and I wasn't enjoying training. When I was training I kept thinking I should really be at the store and when I was at the store after hours I felt like I should be out doing a workout.
All in all I am happy with my decision. I know that I still could have completed the race but that wasn't going to be enough this time around. It just wasn't worth the sacrifice to just finish.
I still haven't decided whether to try and pursue something else this season. I think I will wait and see how the whole parenthood thing goes. Right now I am working hard at helping get the house ready to go.
This past Victoria Day weekend was partly taken up with a trip to Ikea and the assembly of the furniture we bought for the office. I have to say the office looks much better now. Clean and neat with a place for everything. Now if only I could get the shop to that state.
