A Sunday Swim

SWIM: 1000m in 40 mins. Mostly splashing around, drilling, stopping for a break. Not a focused swim at all! I tried the butterfly stroke for the first time, what a workout!

Now's a good a time as any to recap January, my first month of real IM training:
I'm enjoying it so far, I have that So Tired But Lovin' It feeling. I have moments of dread and moments of invincibility. Days when I can go forever and days when I don't think I'll be able to walk to the parking lot. I think that's all par for the course. And the real stuff hasn't even started yet!
