Run in the rain

So I tried to go running tonight, but it rained on me. I'll have to work harder on my Thursday run.

Five days!

I'm glad to report I had a great swim tonight.

Weak sauce,

One week to go! And I didn't work out at all this week. I tried to go swimming today. But everything kept getting in the way. My goggles flooded. Then my head thing kept letting water in and my nose plug started to hurt. Brother!

So my goals for next week are swim Monday and Friday. Run Tuesday and Thursday. Bike Thursday and Friday. Our bikes are getting tuned up this week.

Called in sick

and went swimming today.

This week

I biked on Monday. Swam on Friday. And ran a 5K today. And I actually ran the whole thing. It felt great. I liked that there were a lot of hills and a lot of turns. My timing was about the same. But I didn't walk. I'm really ready for this triathlon. I'm tired of training and ready to race!

A Tri

Yesterday I swam 750 meters. Then I ate lunch. Biked 13 miles. Ate dinner and watched What Happens in Vegas. Then I ran a 5K. So I did my whole Triathlon in one day. It felt great, except for the run. I guess I need to run every day for the next couple of weeks. I only have three left. AHHHH!!!

Biked today

I need to get out on the road though. I'm planning a long ride later this week. Just need to put some air in my tires.

My 5K

Wow, I walked a lot about half way through. I set a goal to finish with this army troop, and I did. Cause they stopped to do push ups and sits up at mile 2. A guy in a wheelchair beat me, and a bunch of 5 to 8 year olds. I really need to practice running. Too bad it just isn't fun like swimming and biking.

29 days to go.

I hardly believe how close it is. Today I swam in the rain. It was just a sprinkle but I could feel it every now and then. The great part is I swam 40 lengths. That's about 1000 meters. I only have to do 750 for the race so I was really proud. And I didn't ever even stop for breathe. And I didn't even do the back stroke for like the last 25 lengths. It felt so great. Can't wait to do it again.

Back in the water.

I finally got to work out today. And it felt great after the terrible week I had. I don't know what I'm going to do when they close the pool. I now love swimming. I think it is the best workout.

Last week is showing.

Five weeks left till the big day. This saturday is my 5K. But as you know, I didn't do so well last week and it showed today when I tried to run a half Tri. My swimming was terrible, and I couldn't run. But I'll try to get back on track this week. The pool is open until Oct 12! Yahoo!
