Hangin' Loose

AM-  Today is swim for 30 mins and run 60 mins.  So we decided to do the swim i the morning and run at night.  Worked on my drills again at first.  This time with the fins.  WOW!!  What a difference it made.  I am sure I had the balances down right.  But it sure did help me move more.  I could breath easier for sure.  And after doing my 5 drills I have been working on.  Went to swimming laps again.  The first lap was horrible.  I had forgotten to use my arms imagine that.  And focused on the 5 drills together.  The last 2 laps were really good.  I felt like I was rotating and breathing right.  And it felt really good.  I am getting this swimming thing down.:)  My legs were a bit sore still this morning.  But after the swim they felt great.  It must be all this training(xtraining) that helped in my races on Sat.  Because it sure feels good.

PM- Headed to the gym to get in my run.  Its a 60 min run so kind of made it a recovery run.  legs are a bit tired and just needed to put in the time.  So just warmed up and turned it up as it became comfortable.  Kristi wasn't feeling to hot after dinner so went it solo.:(

Weather outside was looking good.  So my hopes of riding were getting high.  Until the wind came along.  Opted to ride inside at the gym.  So we headed to the gym to ride.  And problem was that I took my new shoes that dont clip in to the gyms bikes.  ARGH!!  Talk about a pain using straps.  After about 25 mins I called the ride short for me and went and lifted weights instead for the 40 mins while the wife rode.  Worked lats, chest, back, legs, bis, core.  2 sets of each exercise.  Next time I will just brave the weather.  Or bring the right shoes.:)

AM-  Morning swim for 30 mins with the wife.  Needing to get into a routine here.  Forgot my cap, nose plugs and goggles.  Good thing Kristi had extras cap and goggles.  Worked on drills for the first 20 mins.  Added in a new 2 new ones into the mix.  Think I am getting them down some.  But need alot more work on them.  I will focus more on those 2 next time.  Took a bit to get into the groove again.  And then time was up.  Run in the PM.:)

Rest day.  Should of been a 75 min bike.  Ended up having a little bday party for the youngest.  She turned 5 on yesterday.  And not much time to get in a ride.  Might need to change around this bike day for Fri swim day.  And get the swim done in the morning.  That is till the sun starts coming up early enough to ride to work.

First started out with a 40 min swim.  Had a good time doing that with the wife.  And yesterday we took time after work to get Kristi's bike up and running right.  So after swimming we took the bikes out to Saltair and rode that flat route.  We did that with 22.5 or so loop in 1:14 and so it turned out really good.  Got some things figured out with the handle bars.  Kept changing it around to what fit right.  Felt really good on it.  And the only thing I had problem was with my feet being frozen.:)
