A follower of this blog saw me about a month ago and asked, will you write again? And to be completely honest. I was in the funkalicious of Ironman. I had finished something I dreamed about for two years and was stuck in the "what's next" rut. Fast forward to now.. I have a Spark again!
Today I went on my second mountain bike ride ever. On Sunday, I raced Muddy buddy with my best friend on a borrowed mountain bike. I could feel the spark, the adrenaline again, the motivation..it brought me to life! It was in all words.. FANTABULOUSA! So, when I returned the bike to shop... I said.. " I gotta do this again! I'm in LOVE! I have spark!". And to my luck.. it happened. I borrowed a mountain bike from a friend, the guy from the shop became my tour guide and walla.. Today became my second ride ever! I even asked my Ironman coach to coach me, but she said, "Nothing to it.. ride.. crash.. ride". OK! And today I did.. I rode, I crashed, I giggled, I laughed at myself, and I felt the sun on my back! It was GREAT! My sweet tour guide gave me a B today. I'll take it.. I gotta a lot to learn! I'm back.. the blog is back.. and the smile attached to my face.
