Next role: supportive mom

I arrived Brasilia 9:30am. Love how efficient domestic flights are here. Got home 10am, unpack and pack, took an shower, dew work calls, then left to pick up Lizzy to go to her swimming competition in a city 3 hours away.

I’m glad the club provided a bus for thr transportation because I felt asleep right after we departed. I could not have driven myself.

It took longer than usual só it’s 7pm we just got to the pool. None of the kids feel like swimming at this time but they all went in. That’s what competitive sports do, they develop discipline.

This is the 4th city I’ve been if not counting Panama City over thr last week. First for my hobbie, then for important work, now as parent. I can be good at all 3 of them, just not at the same time. And thanks to not training not running, and half executed marathon race, I have excess of energy, to play these roles well for now.

Yet, I’m eager to get back to running. I probably won’t have structured training until next year, but I do need the running flow as much as I need for oxygen.

I’m contemplating how to train for next year races. Maybe get a virtual coach again, or maybe find a local coach with some in person workout runs?! I’ve never done that maybe worth giving it a try.
