I feel like a bum- no posting, minimal training. I'm trying to get back on track but have been distracted lately. Pats and I just did a relay tri last week so I'm feeling refreshed and re-inspired. I'll include the race report in the next post.

First for the workouts: I've been doing some swimming at the Y. I signed up for a full year membership and will start taking intermediate lessons in a few weeks. I've been trying to go 2-3 times a week but it's so dark outside when I get up in the mornings that sometimes I just wuss out. Same with the running--I've been going later and later in the AM (which means shorter runs) because of the gloom outside. I'm so lame. Tried doing some intervals this morning a la Patsy.

Here's what I did:

1km warm up

400 meters x 3 w/200 meter rest in between

.75km cool down

I must have been doing them right because I felt like throwing up when I was done. They kicked my ass and will hopefully (in time) kick my ass into shape!
