Every week I’m like okay, this is the week I get my sh*t together and seriously train for my Ironman 70.3. I go into the week with very good intentions and things sort of come up and get in the way. I’ve come to terms with the fact that I probably won’t be at my peak when race day arrives but I’m staying positive that I’ll get through the race and enjoy myself.

I’ll tell you more later, but last week my sweet pup Ollie had to go in for surgery. It was so stressful and worrisome and completely threw off my week. I should have gone swimming, I should have gone for a run, etc but I was so worried about little Ollie that I let some workouts slide. I’m happy to report that after 3 days at the vet, Ollie is back home recovering. It’s going to be a bit of time before he’s back to his old self but hopefully he gets there soon.
So more on that later, but for now, let’s look at last week’s progress and make a plan for this week. I’m not going to lie, after work I’m not going to want to workout because I’m going to want to come home and check on Ollie and give him some love, he’s had a tough time. With that being said, here’s a look at last week and a game plan for this week.
