Still not 100% mentally after Pacific Crest Tri

It's been two weeks since the Pacific Crest race, and I still can't find any intensity during workouts. And the workouts I manage to get in are quite short. Example: over the weekend at Marine Corps drill, running barely four miles at sea level was nearly killing me. I got on the bike trainer this morning and could only manage 12 miles and 45 minutes before running out motivation.  A 1,000 yard swim today was nice, only because I decided I shouldn't expect more than 1,000 yards as the FIRST SWIM IN TWO WEEKS(!).

What the heck is going on? I was hoping to have a great race next weekend here in my hometown, the first time my schedule has let me do this race. Not sure what's going to happen.

The psychology game is definitely the toughest piece to get together sometimes.


Maybe I need to get this book!!!!
