Solid....

Just a few quick thoughts....

This past week has been solid. Good training leading into Kentucky and I'm right where I should be-it's a confidence builder and with each passing day confirms I'm ready.

My family have been the best training partners in the world. Evelyn, Ian, and Rhonda...I am so thankful for the blessing to share this life with you. I often feel like the luckiest human on the planet. I love you all so much. Thank you...

Ok---so, the plan....Recovery and rest will be key for me. Getting "fresh" and to the line rejuvenated is vital-and, I will do as well as I did in Texas to ensure this. With all the possibilities that could Go wrong in a race-the things you have total control over must be performed to perfection. Nutrition,rest, planning, and recovery can, and will Be a priority for me. I can't say that enough.

I've written about this in the past as a mistake I've made. It boils down to turning off my ADD, and turing on the TV or opening a book, whatever--just finding comfort in boredom. Especially race week. Actually-These are some of The best memories I have had from past races. (They can also be some of the worst if not done correctly) Just relaxing...Writing, praying, and thanking all those who allow me the privilege to compete really is so important.

Now-I still have work to do-sessions that have to be nailed. But I am growing more comfortable with the idea and process of cashing in on my hard work with rest rather than cashing it out.
