Today’s swim was dedicated in honor of James W. Osborn and today’s run was dedicated in honor of Jacque Creech, breast cancer.
I headed to the gym this morning for a 4000 meter swim. To my surprise the pool was closed due to some electrical problems. It made for a change of plans and off for a 7 mile run. I did 3 x 1 mile tempo repeats. I ran an 8:15 warm-up, 3 x 1 miles at 6:49, 6:43, 6:42 with an 8:15 mile recovery mile and finished the run with a mile at 8:00 flat. I could feel the soreness in the legs from Friday and Saturdays workouts.
At lunch I headed to the Olympic size pool on the other side of post. I had to cut it short since it was a lunchtime swim and it took me so long to get there. 2000 meters split into 4 x 500 meter sets. The water was hot and the heat index was near 100. It didn’t make for a pleasant swim and I just had no desire to swim. I hate when my plans get interrupted, I was looking forward to the 4000 meter swim.
Happy Training Everyone!
