Another Easy Day June 10, 2005

Posted by vollenda in : General , add a comment

Today will be another easy day, just riding to/from work. I plan to ride a few extra miles tonight though and ride over to Barnes & Noble. I got a gift card for my birthday and I haven’t spent it yet! A miracle for me… I am hoping to pick up one or two tri books – The Triathlete’s Training Bible, I think. Or maybe some sport specific books for swimming/running, the two areas that I need help improving on. :-)

I’ve also decide to change up my workout schedule. With work getting crazier and crazier with the conversion in the next few months, I can see having to work late more and more. So I decided to start swimming and running in the morning before work. I would just have to get up a half hour earlier to fit them in and I wouldn’t be stressed about making it to the gym after work. Hopefully the pool will be less crowded.

My rest period ends today and I’m back to my normal schedule this weekend. I can’t wait to get in the pool tomorrow! Or I could just be looking forward to telling my gym friends about the tri! Do you ever get tired of talking about it? :-)
