Looks like this Saturday is going to be triathlon training day one. Unless, of course, I wait until next week. Giving myself 3 months to prepare and starting this week, would actually be doing so a WHOLE week early. Not sure if it's the realistic, practical side of me or the procrastinating side of me that wants to wait, but I really won't have the answer to that question until the weekend's over.

Once I get started, there'll be a whole lot of focus going on. The three months will go by like lightning.

The one thing I have done is to begin to live like I'm outside the country. I'm making myself, more or less, unavailable. Hiding out almost. Found myself giving away way too much of my energy toward people, mostly, whom I allowed to pull me away from where I say it is I want to go. Taking on the notion that I'm out of the country, keeps me less likely to allow myself to be distracted.
