Hardest time of the year to train!

Does anyone else think this time of the year is the hardest to train? (holidays, middle of the season, cold, etc..) If so, what do you do that helps? I'm exhausted and having a hard time keeping my motivation up. Any suggestions?

  • The weather in Seattle this month has been my biggest training obstacle! All the rain has caused quite a bit of traffic gridlock making it difficult for me to get to practice after work. Yesterday we got quite a bit of snow right during the evening commute. I actually started to the pool, but aborted after realizing it would take forever. The city does not do well when it snows. Kind of interesting when you consider the Cascade mountains get the most snow of anywhere in the U.S. We just don't get much snow at sea level.
