It's the last day of our semester break and I haven't done much during my vacation. Mostly it's just bumming out, pigging out, or hanging out with friends. Not much adventures. The funny thing is, most of my adventures happen during the regular semesters. Anyway, I couldn't help thinking what I might have done during the break. But then again, I wouldn't be able to do the things I want to do because of budget constraints.
I've been doing some running during the break, only they weren't as regular as it used to be. Once you stop doing something, it's like going back to square one. Same goes for swimming. I can't remember the count, but it's like five weeks since I last swam in a pool. This is going to be great. It's going to take a while to get the strokes and the kicks back - the running too. I should be preparing myself for this annual aquathlon I've been joining since 2009. I remember the time I was checking for the results. It was all confounding with the swim portion. The previous and the more recent time i made were only neck and neck. Funny thing there was was that I didn't train for the event during my first participation, and I did train for the recent one. I guess I'm going on what we call a "plateau" instead of "peaking." The run portion was way better than the first, even though the more recent one had an extra kilometer added. It's back to being serious in training for me. And I'm not just saying that. I really have to stick to what I say with regards to training.
Sometimes, there is this dilemma I'm facing. I want to be a better athlete, but I'm not doing anything about it; the laziness just kicks in. I think it's the first thing I have to work on: kick out the laziness and look for better motivation. May God help me with that.
Well, that's it for now. I gotta get some things done before tomorrow.
