Sweet Tea and The Farm

Well, this week was anything but training. Monday I headed down to North Carolina to scout locations for a photo shoot and to attend a talk that B gave at the furniture showrooms. The hotel we stayed in had a pool and I had every intention of going for a swim. But the days were long - started early and went late, too late. So swimming never actually happened. Flew back Wednesday- had the afternoon in the office then headed to the farm Thursday to prep for Friday's shoot. I put my gym bag in my second rental car of the week thinking I'd have time to stop at the gym on my way home. But we didn't make it back into the city until 10 and then I headed back out to the farm at 6 the following morning. How I actually got up to go for the GTS Bike Saturday morning is beyond me. I just did a few loops in the Park and then biked home. Had a nice talk with Coach who commented on how beautiful The Contessa is. Yes, she is a beauty but she got dirty and I cleaned her off tonight. I feel guilty about not training the way I need to. Today I had every intention of going for a run but I just couldn't move. S laughed at the way I just stayed on the couch. I couldn't get up. Pathetic. But B wears me out. The preparation that went into this week was intense and everything turned out as planned- the shots we got are fantastic- but you know when you work so hard to make something happen and then its over you just feel relieved and pooped and proud all at the same time? Yea, that's how I feel. So here's to a less stressed week of work and to more training - well at least more than last.
