frustration!!

Life is super frustrating right now! I'm so excited about the Tri in Sept however right now i'm struggling with a lower back injury..its affecting my leg and is really driving me crazy! i've worked out my whole life and now am trying to let myself rest and not workout while i go to the chiropractor..which i'm not even sure is working. I went on friday to the chiro and my back was hurting pretty good on friday after work. I got pretty darn down on myself about it, becuz i want to be training now with everyone else and I want to be getting ready for the Tri but I feel like i'm at a stand still and cant.
This weekend I did try Yoga and it actually seemed to help a bit. The stretching seemed to help a bit that day..but now here I am back at work and sitting is bugging both my back and leg again! ugh! I feel like I can't win! I'm headed back to the Chiro again tomorrow..and I believe the Physical Therapy is starting this week too! gotta get back out there and get training!! I also have to get my head back in the positive. I'm pretty down about this injury going on for so long, but I can't let it force me to give up! I have to remember its mind over body! I'll figure this out...at least its happening early in the game...and not right before the Tri! I have plenty of time...gotta keep telling myself that. and maybe i'll start to believe it!!
