week 6 in review

153
I am highly motivated for week 7.

This last week has been pretty good. I've been running and riding fast. My swim was not that great but I believe I am improving, I keep on working on my bilateral breathing among other things.

At this moment I believe I'll be trained enough to finish, I haven't put the three sports together in a row, and the one that I fear the most right now is the bike but I am improving, I need long rides, I usually ride passed Felmoching towards Ingolstadt and I was getting at the same check points in the same time for a longer ride. This week I had even need to go longer on my way back because I came back faster than expected, hehe.

The runs have been wonderful, I did my regular 1h run at the Olympiapark averaging 3.40mins/km and two days later, with the long ride in between, I ran the small loop and then I headed to the Nyphenburg Schloss averaging 1 second faster. I know it is not that good and I am a little too fast, it feels great though. And yesterday it was pretty sunny, very nice to run because it wasn't too hot.

I now swim 3 times a week, and although I think I might be improving I didn't swim well. Specially yesterday where I was somehow out of feeling. Also in my group swim on Thursdays I have been downgraded, thanks God she realized I couldn't keep up with the people on my lane, they are faster than me. But it won't stop me from working to my goal.
I have also realized of how much of an exhibitionist I am. Summer is around the corner and I enjoy running shirtless or semi shirtless. Well I guest a lot of people like to run shirtless.

My family wants me to visit a nutrition specialist when I go back to Spain, I don't feel like I needed, I keep a log of everything I eat and drink. I know what my needs are and how to fulfill them. I know the days that I have a double workout I need to eat plenty of carbs in between the workouts and I need not so much protein and not so much fat. they are worried about my liver, the one in charge to keep carbs storage. It would be a lot worse if I drank alcohol, but I don't so it is not suffering as much, and I don't have very long workouts yet.

I also like the weekends were all I have to worry about is to train and sleep. I get up whenever I want, I train whenever I feel like it and no rush no schedule changes for inconvenient reasons, no nothing. Just a lot of rest and training, I'll miss this lifestyle when I go back.

I have been eating a lot as well, for some reason I am always hungry, I don't know why, it is probably because the training has started to pile up and I need fuel.

I don't know why at this point of my life I still don't think myself of a triathlete at all. Is it because i train on my own? Is it because I haven't competed yet? Is it because I used to play games which needed training and now I do a sport? I had felt like a tennis player or some sort of. I have not had this feeling with triathlon and I am training more than 12h a week and it is going up.

As of my love life, well I believe I got your message. No news from you are a message to me. For some reason I have never known how you feel, of course it is hard when you don't want to talk about it with me. That plus my ability to torn things down when they are going great, just helps to blow everything.
I am also very confused, although I have seen that everything is a game between her and me and a lot more people that I did not know before, things have cooled down a little bit because of an inappropriate comment again and that is probably for the best. It might not be good if i still feel like this in 3 months, it would be too hard to live.

I have also agreed to move to a new place with two hotties for the next year. It will be fun. We might need someone else, We'll see
