Triage time

BIKE: 60 mins about 17 miles. 2x[8 min 75%, 2 min 60%, 2 min 84%, 8min 60%] all in small chain ring. I think this was the calmest part of my day. It didn't last long.
I got a later start, so I put off the run until later. Then I never did get to the run, I kept saying after this, after that, and it never happened. I missed my run, 45 minutes of bliss, lost.

Lots of things are never happening right now. I'm terribly distracted. My priorities have the FBR ahead of work this week, FBR ahead of training, training ahead of work, etc. I could make one of those equation sentences: FBR>training>work>self

I haven't done my hair in weeks, not that I usually do much but I should at least look at it. I wore running clothes all day, and it felt like pajamas, and it wasn't comfortable. I'm slouched at a computer or bench all day so now my back is tired. My sleep is 7hrs or less. Strength training and stretching are non-existant. I'm eating on the run. I'm dehydrated. I keep saying "later", but "later" has to be NOW.

Hence the post title, triage. What a great word, for triathlon, and for someone who loves things in threes. I can identify 3 areas of my life that need critical care: Self, work, triathlon. To address this, upon waking up and before getting out of bed I set 3 goals for the day:
1. No honey or peanut butter. Eat more nutritive foods!
2. Get something substantial done at work today.
3. Get the email to race participants out the door.

I accomplished all 3, and I find joy in that small accomplishment. Tomorrow's goals?
1. No raisins, honey, or peanut butter. Again, reach for real fruit or chicken.
2. Get the PCR repeated, and finish the transfer order, finish evaluations.
3. Get through the list of FBR emails, ride, run

So I really love 3's, as all 3 goals have 3 subgoals.

Training goal? BRICK get up early, get it done. I think the plan is to run to work, so get bags packed for Rich.
