05/02/09 - Triathlon.... CANCELED!
Today was supposed to be my first triathlon. We were meeting informally with our training group to do a mini-triathlon and get some good transition training. I got all my gear together the night before, and woke up with some pre-race jitters. I was sure to get up early to get in my pre-race breakfast, to hit the restroom, stretch, and then to find out it was canceled! I guess pouring rain isn't ideal conditions for ocean swimming and biking. What a let down.
I got in a 6 mile run that day instead, but it doesn't make up for the mental and tactile preparation I had already put towards my first race. I just have to look at it as my first opportunity to train for the blues. After all my early morning, adrenaline-filled anticipation, I was definitely unprepared for the slump that followed.
