Happy Friday.

March 24

I am considering taking a rest day.  My coach said it may be a good idea too.  My asthma is bad due to the drastic weather changes and my shins have been hurting again.  A day of rest may be good for my body.  It may give me time to get more caught up with work and complete some errands.

Is it too early in ironman training to be hungry all the time?!?  UGH!  I need to get my appetite under control.  Today is a long day in the office at work.  Meetings and more meetings.  All training will be done this afternoon as I refuse (so far) to get up any earlier than 4am for work and/or training.
