Back in the Game!

Happy Monday everyone! Sorry for the lag in blogging! This past weekend was moving weekend and thus a bit busier. Not to worry though, I HAVE been training by starting spin class, doing yoga and core work as well as meeting and walking with the girls. Now this last part [...]

Motivation vs. Inspiration in Daily Training

I did my first 5 am spin class with friends Michael and Coffee.  I can tell that this is only the beginning of early morning workouts and training sessions.  In January, I’m planning to start swimming with the Masters program at 5;30 am and as summer winds its way back around here in Las Vegas, [...]

Finding Inspiration in Others

I can’t talk much about training today.  I haven’t done anything yet.  Last week felt like a bust. Although I did do a few things, I did not keep up the momentum from the previous week.  You might suggest that it could have been the Thanksgiving weekend and that everyone gets derailed a little, but [...]

Mind Chatter

It seems like ages since I last posted an entry due partly to the lack of reliable internet service over the holiday weekend.  Then, the past couple of days I been wrapped up in different work-related projects and simply haven’t made the time.  To me, this brings up many issues, among which is incorporating training [...]

Turkey Day Thanks

We went on a bike ride today loosely organizes by some of the members of BikingLasVegas.com.  It was about a 20-25 mile route along the west side of Las Vegas toward Calico Basin, which is just outside of Red Rock Canyon.  I’ve done this area before and have been comfortable with it.  There are some [...]

Goal Setting

I was going to talk about this later, but now seems like a good time. As we start developing training programs and searching for information, the most important thing is to keep an eye on your goals. Without having a goal to work towards, all this can seem very overwhelming. There are two types of [...]

Finding YOUR Silverman

Yesterday I was chatting with a wonderful lady I know from Studio 222.  She has this beautiful aura that is matched by her smile.  She trains several times a week at Studio 222.  I love people with happy enthusiastic energy!  It just lifts my spirits even higher.  Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been [...]

Partnership and Accountability for Motivation

I find that I am much more motivated when there is someone to be motivated with.  Unless have a singular vision that supersedes all others, it’s too easy for me to put things off “until tomorrow.”  When I wanted to train for the Lovell Canyon 10k run, I didn’t actually begin running regularly until the [...]
