Longish, slowish swim

Just wasn't into swimming today. I started off well enough, but soon slowed down to a slower than normal pace. There were a few times I picked it up for a few laps, but that just got me back to a just barely normal pace. I did some playing with my stroke, but that didn't make any difference.

My kick still sucks, and I don't really have the excuse of the run yesterday, because my legs feel pretty good. They just don't want to kick. My arms and legs had quite the interesting conversation about the division of work.

This went on for 50 minutes watching the fast kids in the next lane, and the ■ ■ ■ ■ floating by. Actually, today was a bad day for the pool, what with the ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■, and the ■ ■ ■ ■ ■, to say nothing of the ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■. It wasn't as bad as the ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ I'd expect to see in open water, but still, in a pool you'd expect better. (note, this post as been censored by Susi, and it's for your own good, gack, dry heave.)

Oh, and back up to 232. Not so much exercise and eating my head off.

  2. now you just got me curious and I think the worst when that happens. aughhhhh!

    Keith I may be at the chinook tri, if you need any tips, help with your transition(Susi put me up to this, but I'm happy to help in any way I can if you need it) or simply a slap on the back with some good "YOU CAN DO IT!" encouragement I can do that too. :) I promise I won't do anything too embarrassing like Susi though. :P

  5. The biggest disappointment about the Tinman being cancelled is not seeing Susi go bananas at the finish line.

    But I'll take any offers of enthusiastic help that come along. Thanks!
