| November 29, 2009 | | The Albatross | | I absolutely hate having unfinished business. And I have some unfinished business. I am starting to get real pissed off about my performance this year in Kona. Hence, I am deaadset on qualifying again and giving the Queen K a good solid kick in the pants.
The way I see it the best way to make sure I don't fail is to become determined to succeeed. Yeah I now - well put grasshopper. However, I truly believe that if you really want something you can figure out a way to make it happen. However, you have to DO SOMETHING about it. Remember hope is not an effective strategy.
To that end I have rededicated myself to becoming a stronger and fitter me. Thanks to my good friend Dave Micilli I find some good diet stuff under MY PLATE on the Livestrong website and I am following that religiously. Weight is the albatross around my neck and I will slay it. That is what I am doing. I am writing down every thing that I eat and I am comparing it to the energy I expend. And just like in your checking account when there is no more $$$$$ or calories available - I am done. For me this is really doing something to slay the Albatross.
That being said, my training right now is fairly light - with some serious intensity built in. I am trying to regain the freshness and loosness that my good friend Steve Rink pontificates about. And as soon as I get that positive energy back I am gonna hit it like I have never hit it before.
What is your Albatross? How will you defeat it? Let me know.
Cheers,
Marc
