SWIM 1600y in 45 mins
Snow, so no bike
Tom said the above -- so with that in mind (and the reward of pork rinds if I did the full 45 mins...my carrots are a little different!) I suited up and showed up. Unlike last week!
But to my dismay they were refilling the pool or something so it was cold at the shallow end, hotter about 1/3 of the length in, then comfortable the rest of the way. So a full round trip would be cool, hot, comfy, turn, comfy, COLD, cold. It was terribly distracting. And hit the body hard as it was kind of a shock to hit the cold spot. The temp changes were made worse for me by the relative temps -- not sure I'm explaining this correctly. It was also like going into and out of AC and heat really fast, except water has a bigger effect than air. Ugh, so bad I was resting in the deep end where the water was warm. When I left the pool was empty, and Anton said others were unhappy too. Ah well. It's Done! I did a WU then 5x200 as pull-swim-pull-swim with each 200 focused on one drill. As much as I could focus on a drill with that distraction.
Snow! A very pretty snow too, driving by TGP was a treat. The trees and ground were coated with a sticky clean snow that was gone by the end of the day. There's some major weather system in the northeast, a n'oreaster or something like that, and the Weather Channel is making up stuff about a Bomb-something storm system. Why do I click on those stupid videos?!
