My long lost friend Mo

Last week I reconnected with an old training buddy of mine.  Mo and I really haven't seen much of each other since I moved back to Texas, especially since finishing Ironman Texas.  We sort of kept in touch on and off through my training over the past couple years, but it was mostly fleeting.  Last Monday, we finally got together and made it through an entire week of training together.  Mo was there for every workout, even sometimes reminding me that I'm "fat and slow."  He was a little mean about it, but it was needed to get me out the door a couple times.  Mo was there with me to push me through the last laps in the pool when I really wanted to get out.  He was there when I had to sit on a spin bike for an hour due to it being too cold outside.  Mo was there when the wind was blowing 20+ mph in my face on my Saturday ride.

I was 7/7 in workouts last week, my first week of HIM training, which is a pretty solid week for me.  Its sad that I'm excited for not missing a workout, but I've gotten really bad over the past couple years.

Mon - 30 min swim
Tues - 1 hour spin, 30 min run
Wed - 30 min swim
Thurs - 45 min spin, track work
Fri - 30 min swim
Sat - 1 hour swim, 1.5 hour cycling
Sun - 1 hour run

Mr. Tivation seems to me with me again this week, and I'm hoping that we'll continue to train together for a long, long time.

Many thanks to MoTivation for helping me through the week.
