Format c:

Ever since I have received those those books from Amazon, I have been trying to retrain my mind. I know for me my biggest problem is complacency. Doing the same old routine. Change becomes difficult (if not impossible). Worst, my complaceny quickly can lead to arrogance. Expecting different results from the same action is insanity.

In order to push for better performance, I have started unlearning everything. This is the hard part. I want to, again, to learn triathlon like it is the first time. It really isn't that hard consider that I only have done one tri this year :).

I want to throw all the theories, all the knowledge, all the expectations, all the assumptions out the door and start from scartch. As a geek will say (type) "format c:"

I have change a bit of my mindset already. I hope by the time I set down my 2006 training plan, I would have flipped my brain upside down and inside out. Better yet, maybe I can get a bigger brain on ebay or something :)

On a side note: My swimming have been improving. I know I am moving in the water much smoother. I am more calm and relax. I think I can do a lap of freestyle non stop. I focus on my stroke. "Am I swimming downhill? Is my arm entering the water as fluid as possible? Am I rotating when I do a stroke? Am I kicking with my hip instead of my legs? Should I slow down and focus on my movement? Am I reaching?" I have found a swim class for December. It is in downtown Toronto. I just have to work out the logistics before applying to it.
