"Gotta keep believing if you wanna know for sure..."

SWIM 55 mins and 2000m. Timed 400m in 9:11 for 2:07s/100y

I almost didn't make it! I slept in until almost 4:30am, I had checked that alarm was set to correct time but not that the alarm was actually ON. Duh. At one point in the kitchen I almost decided to skip out, glad I didn't! I reminded myself of the 1:30 goal and that got me moving.

So now that I've said the goal out load, here in the log (and to CHG this morning) I've got to act on it!

The sets were straightforward--200WU, 400 timed, 4x50 kick, 2x50 count strokes, 2x400. At least that's what I did of it. I was slllooooowwwwww, the only guys slower than me were Mr My First Swim In 50 Years and Mr Dual Hip Replacement (who was wearing Club shorts!). Oof. But I have to start somewhere, and I'm already faster just for going!

In the GTD challenge, I'm at 99.12 miles! Whoop. Nevermind the fact that according to my pace goals I should be at 104.7 miles...

Heard again the Keep On Dreaming song, definitely on the songlist now. Not a new song, but today it really fit:


Some dreams stay with you forever
Drag you around and bring you back to where you were
Some dreams keep on getting better
Gotta keep believing if you wanna know for sure

Oh I can hear 'em playin 
I can hear the ringing of a beat up old guitar
Oh I can hear 'em singing 
Keep on dreaming even if it breaks your heart 

Keep on dreaming even if it breaks your heart 

Keep on dreaming,  Don't let it break your heart
