COMMUTE 6+3 extra
BIKE 40 mins and 14 miles
SWIM didn't happen
And I can't complain really, because it isn't that often that a planned day falls apart like this. It's pretty rare.
I'd like to blame the dog, but really she was more of just the excuse. I woke up thinking I'd take the "long way" into work for the bike ride, attend a work meeting at 9am, take DH's car to the pool for the swim, and be done. That's not how the morning went. Instead I took a few extra miles in FoPa, sat through the meeting, then skipped the swim. I instead headed back to lab to get going on a day that would be shortened by having to take the doggie to the vet for the cut on her face.
All day this weighed on my mind. When will I swim? Will I get to go at all? How will I ride home to get the miles? Should I swim Friday instead? What if it gets too dark to ride? What if I went to the pool after the vet?
In the end, I didn't get more outdoor miles (boooo.....), I moved the swim to Friday, and I finished off an hour's worth of riding indoors after the vet and prescription errands were done. To amp it up a bit, I did some light arm weight exercises in the last 20 mins of the bike. I'm worried about going from Hero to Zero, and that I'm losing muscle. Not sure if I am or not, but it's enough to motivate me.
I did what I could, and I'm happy with that.
