Nothing really new to post for now. I have a feeling that school is going to start getting much more difficult here in the oncoming weeks.
Training is still pretty solid. It's just getting harder to fit it in because I'm working more hours now as well. Its funny becaue none of the things I do in and of themselves require a hug commitment. 16 hours of classes? Yeah, lots of people do that. No biggie. Working 20 hours a week? So what thats only part time. Training 15-20 hours per week? Fairly average for a decent age group triathlete. Well lets total that up and we get over 50 hours per week. Not including time spent working on school outside of class.
The other issue is that of sleep. Or lack thereof I should say. For most people getting less then 7-8 hrs night isn't anything to worry about. In fact many friends I have routinely get by on less then 6. But what if your training 2-3 hours a day. In that case you need MORE sleep to help your body recover properly and if you don't get the correct amount your training and performance will begin to suffer. Thats no good. Elite athletes typically get 8-10 hours of sleep a nigh with naps during the day too!! Ahhh.. to be a pro.
That being said It'ss 10 o'clock and the alarm rings at 5 tomorrow. Good night.
