The last few weeks I have
felt like a nomad. After a three week period that included moving,
Christmas, New Years, and a little vacation in Colorado, I was very excited to
get home and settle down. Although settling
in at home is a little different than it has been in the past because I am
settling into my parent’s house in San Jose.
Living in a new place has different challenges to the routine that I had
for myself when I was living in the East Bay area. I have to find new places to bike, run, and
hopefully find a new team to swim with.
I still plan on training at the Olympic
Club in San Francisco and I am excited to be able to use more of the facilities there now that my focus is on training. (Definitely want to start
checking out the nap room…) I have to
say that the move to a new spot has had me pretty anxious. However, after getting out for a ride and run
in the 70 degree weather today, I have become slightly less anxious. I am starting to get a grasp on what, where,
and when I might be training and I am excited to prepare myself to compete
at the best of my abilities. I hope that
this finds you enjoying the New Year; I know that I am excited for 2012 and I
hope that you are as well.
