T is for . . . Triathlon Ready!

So I used to be super fit, like crazy fit. I used to do athletics, I would compete is regional, state and even  national competitions. I would train 5-6 days a week and I loved it. Unfortunately when it came to VCE I was faced with the decision to work or continue to compete and being a 17 year old, I chose work over sport.
And that was pretty much the last time I was fit. Now i'm super unfit. Im a thin person, so people generally assume im a fit person, that is so very far from the truth!
To the point, that when I attempted to swim a few weeks ago, I made 75m before having to doggy paddle the rest of the way, pathetic I know. I felt horrible and decided it was time to do something about it.

So I am.

I have competed in a few triathlons, when I was younger. I loved them, my dad also used to compete. Its such a great sport to be involved in and I have decided to go back, and give it another go. If for nothing else, then at least I'll have my fitness back.

The Goal. . . Be Tri ready, by the start of the season, September 2013!

That gives me, 7 months to be ready. It seems like a fair amount, BUT I have to get 3 different disciplines ready to go in that time, 3!

So ill be developing my own training plan, a healthy eating plan and getting my butt into groove. Ill be posting my training and eating plans at the start of each week, so feel free to join in! Let me tell you, this will be hard work, but I am so excited. Excited to get my fitness and my confidence back, as well as getting my competitive nature back.

So feel free to follow my journey.

Tri ready in 7 months! Bring it on :)
