a few ♥'s

♥Elite Minds & Train To Win

must reads. i keep one of them on the dash of my car. quick motivation.

♥Winter Cycling

amazing how much warmth you get from shoe covers and a robbers mask.

Velominati Rules #5 & #9  

while reading those↑ rules... check out #20. it's a good one.☺

(the shoe covers I got are these. water proof & fleece = warm toes)

♥Soft HR Monitor

just pay the extra money for the soft HR monitor. besides the hard one always breaking, it hurts to wear... meaning i often would 'forget' to wear it.  this soft one is worth the $$

♥Swim Toys & Long Sets

this band! these paddles. loving my swim sets lately... up to 8000!

♥Closet Organizers

not just for closets! 

i basically live out of my car so these keep me somewhat less messy.

speaking of ♥Shoes

Solanas: Zoot was on point with this one. perfect everyday trainer.

Ultra Race: my go to speed-work shoe.

Ultra TT's: best race shoe.

♥Reminders

bathroom.office.car.bedroom.kitchen.gym. filled with little daily reminders & symbols ...

My Goals♦Say Yes♦Breathe♦Habits♦FuelTheMachine 

♥Onesie

onsie for the win! found this in the kids section for 4.99!!! 

perfect for post-freezing cold workouts. and... i mean the Grinch, awesome☺☻☺

♥Fuel!!!!!

i am determined to continue moving forward with my nutrition. MoreFuel•LessFearFoods•EnhancedRecovery•Energyyyy•STRONGATHLETE 

♥Getting ready

longer swim sets in the AM = less get ready time. a few products that i've found to help speed up the process.  

Loreal BB Cream.  this BB cream hides my post-swim goggle lines, apply just with your fingers and doesn't need a powder.  add some mascara and you are good to go. super quick and easy! my skin has been clearer not wearing foundation every day too.   

between the chlorine water, running, and the wind from biking my hair is always a tangly mess! about a month ago i started using Bed Head After Party & Loreal Serum and it's been 100 times better.   

NOT LOVING.

mean, disloyal people.

creating a positive environment is not only key for progress in sport, but life.

rid all negativity.

loving MY ♥♥♥Support Crew♥♥♥

XOXO!!!!

Turning into a Fish

No Running = A WHOLE LOT OF.....

Time spent staring at a black line....

  

AM

 

And PM

 Followed by globs of....

The 'Myrtl Routine' (From this post) on constant repeat throughout the day....


 And as much of this that doesn't bother my leg

Is it just me... or does the instructor bug the SHIT out of you? I have to turn OFF the volume.

 

 

 

 

 

I am pretty sure I am turning into a fish.
