Wanted to see if I could still run after not running for a week.  Wanted to include a hill since I'll be running hills in the Ragnar race.  Ran the first four miles out at a 9:38 pace then reset my watch.  I ran the other four miles back in at a 10:31 pace.  I purposely went easy on the way back in so I could ease back into my routine.  

Getting into a routine will be challenging this week.  

Looking forward to nap time now :)

How are you managing with training, work, and Harvey?

How's the triathlon training going?

I'm trying to swim twice a week. Tuesday is swimming class at CSM then Saturday is open swim. I haven't been able to spin or run this week because Harvey back in hospital. Hoping to get a spin and 3 mile run before heading up to Baltimore tomorrow.

I'm not a very good swimmer. My freestyle is not working. I end up gasping for air and taking in water. I'm going to have to side stroke, back stroke, or doggy paddle across the river.
