Not too long ago, I was still pretty bitter about my back injury. I tried not to talk about and just suck it up. After all, my sadness was about not being able to compete at Challenge Roth. I was not diagnosed with a terminal illness. Get over it!
This week I experienced what I would consider progress. I found myself liking photos on Facebook of friends in California at a triathlon camp and REALLY feeling happy for them. Not cursing under my breath and feeling fake happy but REALLY happy.
Then on Thursday, a coworker asked if I would ever do another Iron distance race and I said YES! Emphatically, without hesitation, YES.
Physically, I am still making progress, no set backs to speak of. I am still taking it easier that I would have in years past. This approach is currently working. I am enjoying my workouts and enjoy having goals again.

I have been keeping consistent with my training. My favourite things right now is my spin class on Thursday nights and swimming on Wednesday and Friday mornings at Hillcrest Community Centre. I have run a few times and enjoyed it because of my new Bluetooth earbuds and the 2nd Season of Serial the podcast.
