Update..... Where is your health check ?

Its been quite a while, since I sat down and wrote an update.  2017 has been a year of up's and down's. Starting with achieving great progression with health. Along the way, there has been disappointments with knee bio-mechanics, but overall, I am moving forward.

In May I started with a Run Coach. When people hear that, they think.. WOW... you must be a real athlete. Um..... sure.   Well getting there in my own good time. :)  However it was the best decision I had made to keep me moving forward. A literally had 1 good month with my coach, and then my knee started to act up. frustrating. With encouragement and positive thoughts, I kept moving.

Working with coach, has allowed me to keep my cardio going, but also to achieve other goals within cycling and swimming.  When I decided to use a run coach, my decision was based on what my downfall was. Last year I had done a triathlon, and I totally fell behind running.  I struggled with it, I struggled with IT band syndrome, due to not running with proper form. It was harsh ! So to fix that, you concentrate on that discipline. Made my decision a lot easier.

Running for me has encompassed a full cardio development for me, but it has helped with Mental health. My best friend started to run a million years ago, due to mental health, and yes it works !
As I have gone through many changes in my past couple years, anxiety is the main one that creeps in once in a while.

Now a few months later, I feel great and I keep it moving !
