The last little while has been interesting. Not good, or bad per se, just interesting.....in a sort of usual sort of way.


If you remember, I have had a goal of getting a 5K run completed in less than 30 minutes.
I am doing this in an effort to get ready to do a sprint triathlon next year.


So far I am doing okay. I figure I should finish in less than 2 hours.


Now, what make the last little while interesting is that I have hit a plateau. I seem to be stuck...


I was getting better and better & I was feeling pretty bullet proof. Suddenly, I have gotten to the point where workouts are challenging again & I have stopped getting any faster.


Normally, it would just be time to switch up the old workout. Get some new energy in the old brain & move along. Only this is not a normal workout or a normal situation.


See, now that I have become "a survivor" the fact that things have gotten hard is scary.
WHY did it get hard to work out again? WHAT is causing that? WHAT do I do? What DID I do?


Most folks would just figure they hit a peak, or needed a break, but when you are within a year of a heart attack, you tend to make everything revert back to that. So you start to think that maybe, JUST MAYBE you have gotten a new clog somewhere. Maybe, JUST MAYBE, you pushed too hard and your heart is paying you back for it.



Do I go to the Dr? Do I ignore it & "See what happens"?


Until something starts to hut, I think I am going to keep up the workouts, let the folks at rehab know I am worried & See what they say.


Good night & God bless.
