Still training

Really, I am.  I thought I'd post my daily workouts but who has time for that?

I'm a few weeks further into training.  My running baseline is now 3 miles, hilly terrain.  My pace remains right at 10 min/mile no matter what the terrain.  I find that strange but don't care too terribly much.  But I can run 3 miles and it's fine so now I'm building to 4.  Bye-bye shorter runs.  I'm gonna miss you.

Swimming...well, I still kinda dread it.  My stomach has been upset for weeks with nervousness about the swimming.  This Tuesday, I swam for about 50 minutes.  Not continuously...mercy!

I did several 75 meter drills with about a minute rest btwn each 75.  Then I did a whole bunch of 50's, practicing breathing on my left side.  That's pretty brutal.

On Wednesday, I ran 2 miles and then swam.  I was very, very sore from the previous day's workout so the swim wasn't going well.  Then my sweet friend challenged me to do a 200 without stopping.  She had just hopped into the pool and done a 600, rested, and then did 600 more.  She swam a mile the other day, too.  Rockstar!  Anyways, I went for 100m without stopping and I actually did it!

Progress!
