HAVE IT YOUR WAY!

What would happen if we removed or forgot all our fears, limitations, past failures? Where and who would we be? FREE!

I believe nothing would be impossible to accomplish and no dream to big to dream.  We would be like the soaring eagle, untamed stallion or the fearless lion-all masters of their domain.

The good news is that we are free to choose, to soar, to run and master of our destiny and our domain, if we just believe!!

EVERY BIT COUNTS

i went to bed a 3 am this morning and had to be up by 9 for an appointment.  I can sure feel the fatigue now after doing 700 reps on abs, hamstrings and running 3/4 of a mile.  Just got in from the gym, so its coffee and french toast for me followed by PVC  pipe roller and ice.

STAYING DEDICATED

Took a Muay Thai class today the kicked my butt and i wanted to just come home and recovery, but there is that thought in the back of my mind constantly reminding me of why i am doing all this training-London 2012.  

On my way home, i stopped at the track and did my fast one mile.  Funny how my legs (my body) felt like i had not worked out at all.

At the ended of it all, i remained consistent and focus!

Track Coach

i am excited that i was able to reconnect with my track former coach.  This guy had me in the best shape of my life.  I am really looking forward to the workouts and working harder than i did in 2004. 

 

Focus-very high; motivation-extremely!

PLAN OR GOAL-just stop procrastinating and stop making excuses!

Either way, just begin! I decided i wanted to compete in 2012 Olympics in London.  I came really close in 2004 only battle 104 degree fever and severe tonsilitis. In 2008, i got hurt and need reconstructive surgery on my left shoulder and as of today, i am in the best of spirit and health ever.
So, i am going for it!   Decided a month ago to compete- starting wt was 213 and i am now 197.  Goal wt 187!  What else have i done?  I have been consistently running a mile plus a day, rolling on a PVC pipe (graduated from the foam roller) and doing 600-1000 reps a day on abs/core.

Whats next? Looking for sponsors like PUMA (absolutely love the brand) and supplement company.  In October and November, decrease mileage and incorporate more sprint work, plyos and weights.  i cant wait! :)
