The training is a been very good over the last 2 months. Very consistant and doing some good work but definitly not feeling fast! 2 more months before the first race and 10 days before my departure for the tbb camp in philippines.
Today was another monster track workout. I woke up this morning and felt like the same nervousness of a race morning. You fell sickish...Hr already up and lots of anticipation of what is to come. I guess with all those year in the sport, i m very well aware of how much pain and hard work i m facing to accomplish this workout and i guess i take it so much at heart to do well at those that it become nerve racking....
I drove to the track. Oups, maybe i should have rode?? but it was rainy and cold so i took the car!
Put a few taping on the foot as i know blister are a possibility in long hard workout... and take 15min to warm up in the grass field. Then, jump on the track for what will be a main set of intervals that would total up to 2ho5. Starting the workout and going for the first loop, i simply terrified in front of this giant mountain of hard work that i need to put in. You go one interval at the time but there is that weird feeling of impossibility that you are facing. how will i pull this one off today??? well, i dont know if i ever got in peice with myself during that session but i simply try to not think to far ahead and take one interval at time.
As i finished the last interval and pass the line, i ended up standing still as i had no energy to lay down...... Freaking silly sport...why m i doing this? and why do i keep coming back day after day. Why m i lovin'it?????
No chance anyone as been silly as me today......
oh well, lets crawl home for some food and build my new Cervelo P2 that i just receive. One more in the bag! I might go to bed scare again tonight, there is a lot more work to come this week, month, year......
i need a shut down button for my brain! ignorance is a bless!!!

SO what the workout? intrigued now to see how our track set planned for tomorrow shapes up
I am so happy that you can pound out a track workout. It's going to be a good year.
It is Sweet to see the perspective of other athletes. Many times I feel like I am the only one that feels like they can never finish a workout at the start. Everyone has doubts it is just overcoming them. Good post, keep up the good work!
