As many of us endorphin junkies try to cram in training around the holidays, I advise you to take a step back and enjoy the time with family. The stress of "gotta get that workout in" should take a back seat to the joy of spending time with friends and family. There are 52 weeks in the year, and one week of recovery, shorter less focused workouts are welcomed by your biggest supporters. Tyler Hamilton's wife once talked about how their whole life revolved around Tyler's training, even on the holidays. Look where that got him, kicked out of the cycling world and in federal courts. On the other hand, don't become a Tom Boonen or Jan Ulrich and partying to all hours of the nights mixing it up with the law.
Spend some time with family and have a Merry Christmas!
Cheers,
Andrew
