When you find yourself in a deep hole, stop digging.
I could rattle off a laundry list of excuses why, but the bottom line is that I have NOT got my training on track for 2011.
My procrastination has left me at the bottom of a deep hole given that I wanted to PR the Tobacco Road Half in March and pick up my speed in spring.
Jackie Miller, of Britfit Personal Training & Coaching performed a Functional Performance screening on me two weeks ago. Frankly, the result was embarrassing. My core strength and flexibility must be improved. Jackie wrote out a great plan and life has conspired to keep me from executing.
It is time to stop digging and dig in.
Sunday began the turnaround with a great ride and I had a great run today. The sun was shining and my new super-green Newton shoes feel great. Tonight, Jackie is going to work me over and give me that Tony Dungy-like stare, without any yelling, that will remind me how I have to get it done. Wednesday will be a sweat-fest brick at the HEAT Studio.
I am digging in.
