OK...I had a spectacular swim class last night. I the one hour in the pool at Glendon, I and the other "beginner" did our training and I finished THE WHOLE 1600 metres in the 1-hour allotted. I feel so proud. I also felt exhausted and exhillarated simultaneously. WOW!
BUT...the big fall-back for me with this great class and even all the progress is: I CAN'T GET UP AND OUT THE DOOR IN THE MORNING TO DO MY BIKE TRAINING ON FRIDAYS!!!!
I am pooped...physically and physiologically. I am just tired and sore. And I don't don't don't have it in me yet to crawl out of bed at 5am and get my ass to a class for 6:30am. ARGH!
This is my next big breakthrough. Keep all the other elements going and do ALL OF MY TRAINING...especially my bike.
Notwithstanding my own emphasis on swimming, my coaches are all stressing biking as the key because that will be the longest and most gruelling of the three sports (although running a half marathon after swimming 2k and biking 90k sounds pretty insane to me too).
And now it's too late in the day with the rest of my schedule 10000% booked up to get out there today. SO...perhaps I just consider today my rest day and do it Saturday or Sunday with the other training I have due!
Hmmmmm....
