Day 47



 Because it’s Wednesday I did not run in the morning. 

Because today is the first day of summer break I did not even get out of bed till nearly 7. 

Ah the luxury!

I went to the gym and went swimming this morning. All lanes were in use and some even had 2 folks. 

I reserved a lane in the 6-7ft depth and had to displace a lady 🙁

I am working on my crawl stroke (slowly!) and give myself a good deal of time in the water before starting them. This morning I decided to watch the other swimmers and just go slow. On the out lap that worked ok. On the back lap I aspirated some water and spend most of the rest of the morning coughing. 

/facepalm. 

It was nice to give my feet a break and feel super fresh from the water. I will swim more. 

Today was the group run day. 

I told Meg she should stay home until her knee looks better but I dutifully went after work. 

I had a great time. Luckily some cloud cover moved in just as we got going. 

It was plenty hot but there was the breeze on an incoming storm the whole time and there as wonderful. 


I feel like I could absolutely get used to swimming in the morning and possibly get used to running in the evening. 
Really I just want to do it all in the morning. 
It’s possible that when this is over I will alternate mornings between swimming and running. 
I could build myself a little triathlon training plan with those two. 
lol
I’m nothing but ambition with my current runners high.
Today I read mostly about wine and I drank a fair bit of water. Aprox 85 oz probably a little more.
