disappointment...

I'm a little bummed about the race on Sunday.  I withdrew at mile 1 of the run...I can't say if it was the heat or my mental attitude as the day wore on but whatever it was things did not go the way I had hoped.  I believe my training has been good and I promised myself I would not second guess my decision... I made the best decision I could with the information I had and in the interest of not being (too) self absorbed I say, "Onward and upward!"   I am signed up for the Fall Creek Falls triathlon on August 15...another Olympic distance and my last race before Augusta unless I get the go ahead for a sprint between now and then. 

After a rest day today I spin easy on the bike tomorrow and get back to it in earnest later this week.  I love training, I love pushing my physical/endurance limits and, despite the negative mental crap in my head yesterday, I love racing.  I may never be as good as I want to be ...I guess that is my competitive nature to want to be better .....but I do believe in finishing what I start and seeing my way through things.
