Today's Workout

It's a recovery week, wahoo. My coach's plan is two weeks hard, one week recovery...works for me.

Up at 4:38 AM. Abs (390 crunches, 200 situps). At the gym at 5:30 AM for some lower body weights. Into the pool at 6 AM for a 45 minute swim (maybe a few minutes extra). 2100 meters today. 400 warmup, 200 pull, 4 x 150 (50 kick, 50 drill, 50 swim), 18 x 50 at race pace. This is so much better than the anaerobic endurance swim where you swim as hard as you can. Even still, it is tiring. Overall, this was a good swim and dare I say "enjoyable."

I thought about....really wanted to...ride my bike to work today. I have a big meeting with a funder today and decided it was not good idea to alk in with helmet hair. Maybe tomorrow.
