New Year...New Goals

Saturday...16 mile run. It felt great, pretty cold and windy, but I can't find anything about that 2 1/2 hours to complain about! I won't bore you with the details since this is a swimming blog, but if you want them, go here and scroll down to the training updates.

Sunday- 2 mile run, was supposed to be a 30 minute run but I just couldn't make myself suffer through to 30 minutes. I just don't get the reasoning behind doing a short run the day after the long run. I got nothing but pain out of it. I will have to talk to the coach about that!

Monday- SWIM with FXCM...
400 warm up

3 x 400 (1 & 2- free, 3- IM)

4 x 150 (1, 2 & 3- free, 4- IM no free) on 2:15

2 x 200 kick

6 x 50 (1-4- free, 5-6- back) on :50

8 x 25 on :25 (odd- free, even- back)

3100 yards total

Tomorrow morning I plan to head to the gym to sit in the hot tub for a little bit, my legs could use it and I didn't have a chance yesterday or today. Then spin at lunch, run in the evening and *maybe* swim practice after the run.

I sent in my entry form for the Richmond meet (Feb. 14-15) and for the UMBC meet (Feb 21-22). YIKES! While Fort has begun to taper for her meet Feb. 14-15, I have just started training. We'll see how this works out for me...
