Training-Detox Day 1

Alrighty, I am being held accountable by the mere fact that I am posting this here ...

Today I am starting my 14 day detox, it's a full-body cleanse, vegan, fiber filled and hopefully awesome.

I have planned out everyday of my training for my Triathlon in May, starting from today ... it's all written out on my calendar, including days of rest ...

Today starts with a 30 min. run and 30 minutes of resistance training, weights.

Also, yesterday at Whole Foods, I found a new product that I read about in my VegNews magazine. They are little shots ... drinks, called Good Belly, vegan probiotics. It's like a little smoothie filled with vitamins and probiotics, only 50 calories ... hoping this combined with my efforts lined out above will help my body to run more efficiently.

I sat down yesterday and lined out my training schedule in sync with the training team that will start at the end of this month ... every swim day and clinic is in hot pink on my calendar.

This is the 1st time in a long time I feel such grand motivation ... having been on this journey over the past year, I have learned so much, I am just overwhelmingly thankful to be where I am at now, 25lbs lighter, on a fiercely-motivated journey to reaching my weight loss goals, and training for and competing in an Olympic distance triathlon. Yes, lofty goals for 2009, but completely attainable ... All things through Christ. He is my everything and in this journey I hope to glorify Him more and more.

So, today it all starts ... cleansing-probiotic-filled-training ...

Thank you Jesus for being my motivation, my body is a temple, filled with the Holy Spirit, and I am so grateful.
