SWIM 2500y in just over an hour
RUN about 38 mins and 3.6 miles
While most clocks were updated to the new fall/winter time, someone didn't tell the doggie. So she woke me up at 3:53 this morning and I couldn't get back to sleep. I was meeting RM at 8am at the pool, so this was early! But I'm always finding things to do, I didn't see it as a total loss just yet.
But then a weird brekkie that included 3 big mugs of coffee happened, soon enough I was wide awake and sleepy at the same time. I tried to fall back asleep but it didn't happen. I had a buzzing, disconnected, sick, blah feeling. Driving out to the pool, I was unfocused and thinking this training would be a bad idea.
But I'm a sucker for peer pressure, and just thinking about having to "call in sick" didn't appeal to me. So off to the pool!
Once at the pool I forgot to bring in my swim plan, so on the fly I made up a 2x [300 swim, 300 pull, 6x50 drill, 100 paddle] then 500 whatever plan with kicking. I worked through it, trying to slow the heck down and find good stroke technique. I'm not very good at that!
Then the run was a bit later with RM and Daisy. We ran from his home to a favorite park, and in doing so I realized that a group run that rotated through friends' neighborhoods and favorite parks would be a fun series to do. For me anyway.
I was very tired yesterday after all that RBRB, and then with this morning on top of that (or more likely because of it!) I'm worn out. I need to rest!
