Tuesday Trainer: Meet The Trainer Edition!

It’s Tuesday, which means it’s Tuesday Trainer day! If you’re new to Tuesday trainer, be sure you check out the last two weeks (featuring videos by me!):

This week’s edition is a little different, as Lindsay has made this a “rest week”. Rest is important in any exercise program after all! This week each “trainer” shot a video about themselves, so you have an opportunity to get to know us a little better. This was harder for me than shooting an exercise move – I think it took me at least 5 takes! Click on the button below to see the all the videos on Lindsay’s List.

If you watched the video, you’ll know that I talked about my next fitness goal. Since I deferred the Marine Corp Marathon, I’ve been floundering a bit, and really need to get back to some focused training again. It’s been over 3 months since Ironman, I can’t use that as my “slacker” excuse forever! 🙂

I know it’s October, but my 2011 race calendar (for the end of the year) is actually starting to come together now. For me, having a race on the calendar (and paid for!) is the best way for me to stay on schedule and get my training in.

Upcoming Races

November 5 – Battle at Big Creek 9M Trail Run

November 24 – Atlanta Half Marathon (Thanksgiving Day!)

It’s not a long list, but the races are long enough to keep me honest. I’m still debating my December calendar – rest or race?

 

Question of the Day – What’s your next fitness goal? What keeps you motivated to get that next workout in when you’d rather relax on the couch (or in bed)?
