This must be what people who don't train do all day!
I always wonder what people who are not obsessed with sports and working out do with all of their free time. Today, which is an off day for me, allowed me to explore the world outside of training, and actually it has been pretty fun so far! Here is what I've been up to:
- Slept in to 6:30 - Wow, I could get used to this!!
- Took the light rail (public transportation) to work. Read the New Yorker. Very relaxing, and cost efficient.
- Got into work at 7:25 am!
- Did not have to do a lunchtime workout; went to the Toyota dealership and drove a Prius (which has a 4-6 month waiting list, holy cats!) and the Corolla.
However, I did do a few tri-related activities, such as:
- Staring at the forecast, which is now up to a 98 degree high for Sunday, and willed it to change.
- Stared at my start waved, willed it to change.
- Thought awesome thoughts about my race.
- Drank lots of water.
Overall it has been pretty fun, but I don't think I want to get used to it! Tomorrow I am back to my normal sports-obsessed life as I will be doing very short workouts of each discipline I am racing, going to the race expo and picking up my packet, attending the pre-race meeting, etc., etc. I'm looking forward to it!
