I have to say that I absolutely love off-season. One week into my official off-season and I am having a blast. It started with a weekend of parties. My triathlon club had their end of the season party and a friend got married. It was great to be able to stay up late, have a few drinks, and dance like crazy without worrying about training. The weekend ended with me painting a room in my house. It’s amazing all the stuff I can get done in a weekend when I’m not working out. My body has finally stopped aching from the long season and I actually feel like I can get through a day without needing a nap. I know in about one more week I’ll be going crazy and dying to get out and train and I'm already looking forward to that first run. It’ll seem a little tougher than before but there’s nothing like training when you're feeling fresh and completely rested. Until then it’s back to work. I have lots to check off my todo list! Before I know it, off-season will be over.
