Another Cold
I think I'm developing another head cold. Whad up wit dat? Oh well. There are worse things in this world. I work in a place where people are REALLY sick. That's the good thing about my job - it offers a lot of perspective. A cold doesn't sound so bad when you were just talking with somebody who has terminal cancer.
AM swim workout
3500 yds (900 yds warmup, 600 yds cooldown)
20x100 yds (again!) as:
4x100 on 1:45
3x100 on 1:40
2x100 on 1:35
1x100 on 1:30
1x100 on 1:45
2x100 on 1:40
3x100 on 1:35
4x100 on 1:30
Tricky that workout. Just when you start to think things are feeling too easy you have the hardest part right at the end. :)
I didn't have class today because my professor is away in Hawaii (pity her huh?!) and so after work I went home and took a 2 hour nap (pity me huh?!). The cold has me feeling a little sleepy. When I got up I checked my email and saw that coach had emailed me wanting to know if I wanted to ride this afternoon because it was such a beautiful day. I called him and had just missed him. Bummer! But I drove down to the shop and rode anyway because...well...it was too beautiful of a day not to! And it was a great ride. 25 miles in about 1:16-1:17 (almost 20 MPH ave), sunny skies, not too hot. I even wore my arm warmers because there was a bit of a nip in the air. It was crisp and clear and I felt really alive. That's the great thing about running/cycling/swimming, etc...it helps you feel alive and well and I often wonder how people feel who don't exercise. They're missing out for sure.
Anyway, that ride really wasn't on the schedule so instead of riding/running tomorrow afternoon I'll just do a quick run. All is well in my world. :)
