Book presentations and training

I've been doing my best to promote my book while still working, cleaning, being the house taxi driver, and training. It's amazing how many people are coming out of the woodwork now to let me know how they think I ought to be selling the book or what my next move should be. Like, where were you all while I was struggling writing the thing?
I'm especially happy that I now have a coach (i.e. my husband was forced into coaching me) because I would have bailed on a bunch of workouts if I didn't know that he'd be watching over me. One of the things I am supposed to do is send my Polar HRM files to him on my bike and running workouts. That way he can check if I did the exercise right and how I'm progressing. This has been especially useful on lone runs because sometimes when the going gets tough (and I get my heart rate up too high) I walk. Not that I need to, but sometimes the incentive just isn't there. Now it is because if there's a little flicker in the heart graph he'll ask me what was happening. So things have been going good. As soon as I have the time I'll put my planned season races on the sidebar. Today's plan: 1500mt a.m. swim, book presentation in Ferrara in the afternoon.
