New Routine June 13, 2005

Posted by vollenda in : General , add a comment

I started my new routine this morning. Woke up at 5 this morning to swim before work. I rode to the gym and swam 1×700 and then rode to work. It was nice. They gym wasn’t crowded, there were only a couple of people in the pool, and getting up at 5 was pretty easy. And best of all, most of my workout for the day is already done! :-) I started getting up at 5 over the weekend. It’s actually about the time my cat wants me to feed him but I would usually ignore him until 5:30. I don’t know how that cat knows what time I want to get up but this morning he stared asking for his breakfast at 4:45! That darn cat never lets me sleep thru til my alarm goes off! :-(

The swim was good, a nice easy swim. I plan on swimming before work on Mon & Wed and then the regular Sat workout. Swimming before work means I won’t have to schedule my workout around their aqua classes. Tomorrow, I’m going to start running before work too. I bought “The Triathlete’s Guide to Run Training” on Friday and I want to start applying it to my runs.

Oh yeah, the pictures from the Danskin are ready. I laughed my butt off when I saw them. They are hilarious…I look like I’m totally suffering thru the whole thing…which is not how I remember it. My coworkers wanted to know what I was looking at that made me laugh so hard so I showed the pictures to them. They thought they were funny but they are proud of me for doing it. :-) I almost didn’t show them to my best friend or my sister either because I want them to do it next year and I’ve been telling them how much fun it was. Darn! They don’t believe me anymore! -) But I’m glad my nieces got to see them. My niece, Morgan (7 yrs) said she will do one with me when she gets bigger! Woo Hoo! :-)
