Before you know it, you have eaten enough for 3 and drank enough for more then that and its going on day 5 or 6 or even 7. I think its tougher mentally then it really is physically.

If we could turn off our minds I am sure our bodies enjoy the freedom to eat and drink, and to not have to set alarms for 6 am swims or stay oout for 7 pm bikes. As much as you feel heavy and sluggish, take note of your first swim bike or run in the new year and see how good it feels. Note the energy and enthusiasm you have for your workout. Although not offically scheduled in our very detailed training plans this week here could be the one that catapults you into a strong and energized spring of training.

Hope you all had a great Christmas and Enjoy and Very Happy and Successful New Year.
