What a difference 20 degrees makes!

Last week was the official beginning of the 20-week Olympic triathlon training period, which I thought would motivate me to kick it into high gear. It did not, although I did work out a bit more than I had been. This week, however, the weather has been nicer and I'm really feeling the motivation. Plus, it's been staying lighter longer so that if I hurry it's not dark when I step out the door at night to go running and that helps a lot. It's still early, but I'm starting to feel very excited about my training!
