I know exactly what will work for you..hehehe.....

Make a large donation to the upkeep of this site then come back every day to use the logs.  It's a great motivator.  Check out the logs of others to see how hard your competition is working too

Charles,

You rang?  How may I be of assistance? 

Okay, words of wisdom:  First of all, NEVER take more than one day of rest at a time.  Its hard to restart from a stopped position!  Plan your week so your rest days (if you take more than 1) are spaced out.  On your rest day, do something, however small, related to your training, like clean and lube your bike or read a triathlon training book/magazine.

Your mind is the rudder to your body, keep it in the game and the body will certainly follow!

Having a plan is the only way I can keep going.  I have it written down and in my Daytimer.  Use the logs here and check in often - we're full of encouragement!

I'm afraid if I stop i will lose all my fitness. Also I am addicted to my bike. I have to keep running because I suck at it. Just think about all the hard work you have done and you don't want to lose your fitness level and have to start over.
