Stress... my timings for T1 500m are below par. Need to buck up!

Just realized I can get quite complacent sometimes... waiting at the starting line today, when there's no one to tell you when to go, I was... afraid to start.

Afraid it would be a bad set, that my timing would be like crap.

Afraid that I would chiong too much at the start and end up tired at the end.

Afraid I wasn't up to standard.

Last few sets I just told myself to heck care, make all the mistakes I wanted, because this was training anyway. Just like each stage's score in MVC2, I will slowly train this timing to be top notch.


Headed to school for weights after rowing. Haven't done serious running in... what, 2 weeks? Crap! Stupid shins... I almost died during weights circuit! After first biceps station just couldn't go on at all, biceps and forearms felt like someone was squeezing the life out of them. Stretching didn't help, and resorted to kneeling on the ground to grip them in pain for awhile. May have overdone it today... but yes! I am back to killing myself during training! Woohoo!
