Half way point. 10 weeks down, 10 to go. Have I got enough base in? Will I be ready in time?
Christmas Eve. I can't wait until 5pm then I can enjoy Christmas with the girls. We got up and got to the pool for Alex's last swim before a mini break. Got in a good hard swim set and started to feel ok in the water again. My fitness is good, definitely good enough to complete any event I want to do at present, but to race one well?
After the swim I attempted to run to work, to get a good 2 1/2 - 3 hour set before work. Legs died and I probably did not eat nearly enough food for the effort I put in this morning. It's going to be a long day at work now.
After getting some energy back, work went by fairly quickly. The girls picked me up and we headed home to get ready for our Christmas Eve tradition. After a BBQ for dinner we settled in for a 2 traditional movies, had a Skype call from England and slept in the lounge. Good times!
I have suffered from depression for a very long time, probably since I was a teenager. I have struggled with many aspects of my life to do the right thing, make the right choices etc. and now I am trying to be better. I acknowledged I had depression and did nothing about it. It took someone who I deeply respected to tell me they too had depression and they got medical to help, to finally seek actual real help. I am now and finally making real progress. Don't wait to get help!
