So much depends... on the run you do today!

Today I went cross trained in the water and on a bike. It was a good work-out that worked on my breathing. I did a pyramid in the water of 1min hard 1 rest, 2 hard 1 rest, 3 hard 1 rest and back down again. with a 5 min warm up and cool down. I enjoy seeing the type of people that go there in the morning. Then i bike for 15 min.  

Today was the first day i offically ran :) I started with great hope and ended full of it, but it went by really fast.

Then i went over to the rec center and went to pay the 3 dollars to get into the pool, and they told me it was 4 dollars. well i only had $3.62. so i went back to where pratice is held and luckily there was money just laying around in casey's wallet. but unfortunately there was only a 10 and 20's in his wallet. so i took a 10 and was able to get in :).

my arms were a little sore in the water from throwing haybales last saturday, but once i got into it it was fine. I swam 4 sets 2:30 fast 30 rest with 5 warm and cool.

Today was a bad start of sleeping in but i liked running down in that grass area. I'm starting to feel more confindent with running and feeling good. i will probably run 2 by the end of this week.

Swimming was different. i went to start my workout and tried to turn on my high tech watch and it wouldn't start, so that stunk and i didn't know how long i swam. i tried to do a 5 warm and cool, with a distance swim of constant for 20 min. but im not sure how long it was.

Easy run felt good.

went down to the same grass spot in my park. felt good the first lap, then i tried to throw in some speed on the last lap. feel my form coming back already and I'm ready for further next week. the pain i had on my stress fracter this week worried me a little bit, but today i felt it again and there isn't anything. looks like its healed all the way :)

Today was a very very good day.

I stinkin woke up late again because of my alarm i put it an hour ahead.

but then i swam 6 sets of 2:30 hard 30 sec rest with 5 warm and cool for 28 min in the pool. I pushed myself hard the last three sets and i felt like it went very well. one of my best swim sets.

The run i started a little fast and ended with a solid 7:20 mile. I'm coming along good and i'm going to have my best xc season this year. my goal is to get a sub 15:45 this year.

run was good got a 6:58 mile. i dont mean to go that fast but i guess it's not that fast, felt good and ready to move to mile and a half tomorrow.

swim i did 2 sets of 5 1:30 fast 30 rest. the last three i really had to push myself to get around the circle enough. this was as good a workout as yesterday. i'm glad i'm starting to do much better, although i know i should go a little more i'm just being on the safe side.

coach thanks for letting me use your pool, it has really been much easier. Your wife is kind too.

well thats what my watch said but i really didn't go any.

Today my swim workout was a constant pace of 1 hour with a 6min warm up and stretch before and after. It was the longest shortest hour. It was weird workout because my arms never really started to get tired, so i went harder and harder but i guess i was warmed up so i could take it. I prolly wouldn't have been able to get through this except i had music today.

This morning I did not feel like doing anything. But i made myself get up and run. it was fine, i felt my stress fracter spot a little this morning but it's fine.

Then i went and swam 1 min fast 1 rest 2 fast 1 rest 3 fast 1 rest and back down. I was supposed to go up to 4 min, but i didn't feel up to it. So i did less but made sure i pushed myself even harder on these. i was glad when it was all over.

the kids camp was good. i ran around a little bit there, about .5.
