get in shape

First day back in the water since the triathalon over a week ago.. I didn’t mean for it to take so long.. Did laps and went for 1 mile today.

Went walking today 2.3 miles.. didn’t have very long and really wanted to go swimming, but in the interest of time, I chose to walk today.

for the last time until my race on Sunday.

before my triathalon was today. I felt good, but wish I had a few more weeks to prepare!

Swam today with M… only had about 30 minutes before the boys’ soccer game.. but it was a great way to start the day.

Did another brick today with biking and running… whew.. I could use another few weeks to prepare for this triathalon… but I don’t have it…the race is Sunday!

I did my first brick today… rode my bike and then ran (ok.. for the first few steps, I tried to run..).. funny feeling coming off the bike and then trying to go right into running. I didn’t run too far.. just wanted to get the feel for it. It started to rain so I came in to get ready to go to a meeting. But I did my first brick!! Wooo Hooo

again today by another 5 seconds… that brings my total reduction in time for 250M to 52 seconds from last week. :)

Didn’t go to cycling class tonight… took my bike out on the road instead, but only for a few miles trying to concentrate on some hills and gearing. Looking forward to more laps in the pool tomorrow.

Went to the pool to swim today. Did laps and timed my 50/100/250M laps… I am swimming 40 seconds faster on my 250M then I did 2 weeks ago and 5 seconds faster then earlier last week.. Need to continue to work on my strokes and becoming more efficient. The triathalon is 3 weeks from today.
