Better for the run

Friday Swim 0.8km
Met Miners at the pool at lunchtime, which was great after not catching up for ages. Just for a chat though (with good reason) and DVD drop off.
By the time I eventually got into the pool I didn’t have a great deal of time, which actually wasn’t a problem in the end. I realised after a couple of hundreds that my swim fitness had dropped off after a 10 days break that included little exercise and not feeling well. So I only ended up doing 800m (500m free and 300m breaststroke), which was plenty seeing as I was doing more drowning than swimming towards the end of it. Glad I got in there though.

Sunday Run 6km
It wasn’t much of a day today – a bit cold and wet. I managed to make it home before the rain arrived though, but only just. It was a trouble free run down to Flynns Beach and back home in just over half an hour.
I’ll aim for a couple more runs less than 10km this week then look at building up to some longer runs and incorporating some variety into the runs from there.

Monday Swim 1.2km
I was better today being one swim back from a spell. It was a much nicer day today than it has been for the last week or two and there were quite a few school groups coming and going while I was there. Happily I was insulated from them in a middle lane with a couple of others before the others left and I had the lane to myself. I was still resting between each 100 a bit more than usual, finishing with a mixed session totalling 700m freestyle and 500m breaststroke.
