For example, when I find a restaurant I really like, I want to go back there over and over, or listen to the same song over and over until I'm sick of it. Or eating the same snack over and over. Perhaps it is an engineer thing? I think you'd make a great triathlete, if that's your thing...tri people are all very focused with training, with biking, with all the components. (There are 3 other triathletes in my fam, so I can speak with a fair amount of authority.) This is not a bad thing. I think it is just a characteristic of type A personalities. Last year, for me the sport was front and center (as in, when I wasn't talking about it, I was thinking about it all the time), and this year I'm learning the "balance" part. (I'm not quite as fixated.) I try to remember to enjoy it - for example enjoying the view during a workout - rather than just pounding out the miles. It's easy to get caught up in the end goal and forget the beauty around. I think it's GREAT that you love biking. The key is to always find new ways to switch it up to stay interested. (If you're like me.) For example, finding new routes to ride and new scenery. Congrats on being WELL on your way to achieving your goal...that is AWESOME!Alishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12128750258235985242noreply@blogger.com
