I have given it some thought now that my weight loss goal is nearly done and I am finding myself feeling more competitive when I play racquetball etc. I think I need to compete at something to keep motivated and move forward.

For now I am going to try swimming again- since that is where I have some experience and also the sport I like most. But we'll have to see how well I take to swimming 10,000-15,000 meters a week- likely more in time.

If that proves too monotonous, then triathalons are definitely a possibility. We have a lot of them here in Austin, and training for one offers a good variety (though I am not sure I would be up for a 10 mile run like you just did!)

1 hour of racquetball today followed by 30 minutes of heavy lifting- a refocus in the weightroom to increase my power for swimming. Hand bandages came off today, so hoping to be back in the pool this week...
