I am back at uni and ready for everything that 2011 brings! The best way to start that off is, of course in my fashion, by breaking things. At circuit practice this morning I managed to break a hurdle. I jumped over it, it fell and hit my heel and then split in two. What luck?! Oh well, the rest of my a.m was great: said goodbye to my dad at seven, hit the pool (for only 1200m because the guard was 45min late) and hit the hurdle in circuit. With the first official practice of the new year I am feeling pretty good, so I put down the 3000m for my first indoor track event that is on the 15th in Seattle. I am nervous to say the least. I don't think I am ready for track yet- as I am not up to speed (literally). I might compete in this one and then redshirt and train for the rest of the season to really get good so I don't make a fool of myself! Decisions, decisions.
In other racing news, I am pumped to do the UBC Duathlon in two months on March 6th. The team will be at Indoor Nats, so that will be the perfect time for me to try my first duathlon! I am super excited! I plan to scatter some other triathlons throughout june, july and august- and possibly run a half marathon sometime in there to prepare me for 2012 because.... I am going to do a 70.3!!! Probably the Calgary 70.3 on august long. I figure why not? I will be 20, and that's the perfect amount of time to get myself ready. Plus I should get serious about it, because I will probably be registering for it sometime this year!
Lastly, before I go and have a nap- thanks to everyone who was a part of my Christmas/New Years/Winter Break celebrations! I am so lucky to have such amazing people in my life!
Cheers and best of luck in 2011
