Catching Up On My Week

After my 4 mile run on Tuesday, my legs still felt pretty tight, so I bagged any Wednesday run, and instead did some ab work, and lifted some light weights at home.

On Thursday, I went for my 3 mile run, and did the same on Friday. I usually finish these between 27:00 and 30:00 depending on my mood, or what is playing on my MP3. If I am listening to Foo Fighters, or Red Hot Chili Peppers, closer to the 27:00 mark.

My husband is reminding me (pretty much hourly, now) that I have to get in the saddle before our California trip. I know, I know. I love biking when it is some sort of sanctioned event, like my upcoming trip, or a triathlon/duathlon. I can't explain it. I just hate being all by myself on the road, and having some jerk yell obscenities at me. My husband is the biker in the family, and I can't believe some of the stories he comes home with!!

Well, instead of joining him for a bike ride today, I went to the pool.

This is the pool that I swim in. I love it. I wish that it was convertible to a long course pool, but, oh well. Here is the workout that I did today:









WU: 300 Free
200 Free Kick
100 Pull
Main: 5 x 100 Free on 1:30
Kick: 1 x 100 Fly (30 sec btw)
1 x 100 Back

Other: 5 x 50 ascend
5 x 50 ascend
WD: 1 x 50 Free

I threw in a 100 IM at the end for 2300.

If anyone would like to share their swim workouts, I'd love to hear them!
