My First Go at a Mini Sprint!

This morning I decided that it was time to attempt a brick workout where I combined all events of my upcoming race. To my surprise, it went very well and I ended up finishing a 1.5 mile run, 5 mile bike ride and 1/2 mile swim in 50 minutes. It felt great to be able to get a taste of what is approaching and being able to accomplish this with ease was extremely motivational.

Speaking of motivation, I recently glanced at my calendar and realized that I have only 10 days to get my body ready for swimsuit season. My motivation to lose an extra 5-10 pounds in the next 10 days is higher than ever. I had a goal weight set when my girlfriends and I booked this trip 8 months ago and I am only 8 pounds away from it. Realistically, back then, I never thought I would make it. However, since I am so close, I want it BAD! So, lots of water, lots of workouts and lots of calorie counting for the next 10 days and maybe, just maybe, I will post a picture of me with a swimsuit on from my trip to Mexico!

Hasta luego, amigos!
