Dealing with the weather...

So, its mid May here in Boulder and we have been dumped on with snow, yet again! However, instead of the whining and complaining that usually takes place, I was pleasantly surprised to find a full pool this morning at Flatirons, with a bunch of hardworking athletes. This made me realize just how fortunate I am to be surrounded by amazing athletes and coaches here in Boulder, CO.

There are always those days when you feel unmotivated, or do not have the energy to get up and get your day started. We have all been there! With weather in the low 30's (in MAY!), it does not make it easy to get fired up for a swim outdoors, track sessions, or rides on damp streets with cold wind blowing in your face. This is when the appreciation for training partners, or friends comes in. So, gives some hugs and kisses to those people in your lives who help you through the rough patches, whether it be in training, or just in life in general. We couldn't do it without them! :)

Stay warm to those in Boulder, and for those of you in sunny and warm places, don't rub it in!
