Letter to myself

Challenge for week 1 is to write a letter to yourself.  and Here is mine

Today you are excited about the idea of starting your fourth round of 12WBT. You are ready to really smash this round. Injuries have settled and your head is in the space to make the most of the next 12 weeks. To train hard and eat well. Next week is the start of your Busselton 70.3 program and you know you are better organized than ever before. Organization is always your down fall, but you have a new diary on its way and it’s time to plan the whole preparations. Remember to put in the red flag weekends but don’t allow the usual excuses to creep in.

You know you are in great shape and there is no reason why you can’t get another PB at Busselton in May, you have more to give and you know it. You will need to get a PB to have any chance of a world championship spot but you can do it.

Be kind to your friends and most of all Murray but don’t forget to be kind to yourself. Murray is a great supporter and you need to remind yourself that he has your best interests at heart. You know you will have doubts and worries. Try not to worry about things you can’t control.  Don’t let other feed your doubts, you are strong enough to train without help and you already know this. Get out there and just do it.  

Listen to your body and read the signs. Rest only when you need to. Remind yourself that you are going to be tired at times but you may as well be tired because you trained not tired and you didn’t even train.

“Oxygen is good for the brain – get out there are exercise your brain with thank you for the extra oxygen”
