With one week of training under my belt, I can officially say that I am training for the XTERRA race here in March. XTERRA is an extreme triathalon with a 1500m open water swim, 22 mile bike through the mountains (on trails, not so much the road) and a 5 mile jungle run. I got my very own bike and have upped my training in every aspect. I can't remember the last time I was so sore and exhausted, but I am LOVING having something to train for again. Why did I choose this race? Because it terrifies me. I have never challenged my body to this extreme before. And I love beating my own fears.

So what scares you physically? And how are you going to challenge and beat it? And what are you training for next? Let me know!
