Swim and Run day…

Monday is coming to a close…I just finished playing Candyland with my 2 girls and am now updating this blog to show what progress I’ve made in training today…

Swim: I went to the Y this morning to swim at least 1mi…I ended up at 1.5mi total but felt like I could have done more. The problem was that lately, this particular pool is getting super slammed with people. You have have the pool blocked off for the water aerobics class and then only 2 lanes opened for lap swimmers. When it gets busy, like today, you have to swim in circles. Those that are slower, slow you down. My lane had 4 people going into my last .5 mile which really began to take its toll on me. When I completed 1mi, I forced myself on the last .5mi just to say I did it. I had a lot still in me but just couldn’t take the wait…I bailed.

Run: After work, I wanted to get in 2mi before dark, so I laced up and went around my neighborhood. I’m terribly, terribly slow at running. I’m hoping I improve this over the next couple of months because right now it is pathetic.

That’s it for today…tomorrow is bike day.

Keep on crankin’
