More rain! But I managed to swim!!

BIKE 74 mins and 21.1 mph, 3x [11' hard; 5' easy]
SWIM 60 mins and 2600, 4x [125 yards hard;200 easy], broken 500 in 9:32 or 1:54 min/100y

More rain! Less so rain, and more of a fine mist that keeps the roads wet. Sure, I could ride, but is it really worth an accident? Not just 9 days out from the race! So another day with no commuting. Maybe Friday, since I normally drive Thursdays. We'll see.

And another trainer ride, the last (hopefully!) before B2B? This was 3x 11 mins hard, managed 19.1, 18.5, and 18.5 mph in the intervals, so 3.4-3.5 miles each. It's hard to get your speed focus up while watching Downton Abbey...

Last night LC texted to ask if I was swimming this morning. I said I usually end up skipping my Weds swim, so I'd be happy to have some accountability with a "see you there". Sweet! So after the ride, feeling the pull of "skip-the-swim" habit I went to the pool.

Today was a broken 500 yard as a 4x125, add up the 125 times for the broken time. Between each 125 is a easy/mod 200. This went fast! It took a total of 9:32, so while the time went by fast I didn't! Boo! I wasn't sprinting but in all honest I was pushing it. LC was swimming in my lane and she was lapping me repeatedly. Dammit! Gotta get fast!

Thanks to LC for the text :) In looking over my Training Peaks log, I haven't done my Weds swim since Sept 24 when I did some "lazy 100s" over lunch!
