Hit the pool with Pain this morning. Good lord I am out of swimming shape. Pain will fix me or kill me trying.
After work I run for 60 mins. I forgot 2 of my snacks today because i was wicked busy at work. I paid the price during the run. Light headed after 30 mins. I knew it was nutritional so I just kept going knowing it wasn't going to kill me. Score one for mental toughness today.
Looking forward to a solid weekend of training and relaxing. Changing the oil in the X and paying bills are really all I have to other than train. Kinda nice not having 4 million places to be.

Nice night for a run
The weather was just about prefect this evening for a run. I was joined by O'Connor the Blonde and that totally helped passed the time. The point of the run was an easy effort and since she was sick we didn't go even close to moderate. Just social and that was just what I needed.
Hit up yoga today at lunch. Gettin' more flexible everyday.
My job is not rocket science so I don't get too serious about it but......I have a guy that sits near me and he is sick with a cold or something. He has the manners of a 12 year old boy and the noises that came out of him today got so bad I almost whipped around and told him he needed a class in manners....the guy was freaking gross. This is coming from a guy who has seen his share of gross shit while tri training. But this is the office for Christ sake. Dude.....you're gross and you're mother should be ashamed of how she raised you!
Oh yeah.....get better soon.......you asshole.

Good sore
I hit the pool this morning and it showed that I haven't been for about a month. I was wiped 1/2 way through. Pain was loving it. At about 11 this morning I started feeling the aftermath of the workout. My shoulders are dead right now. Gotta start somewhere. Pain had us breathing to our weak side this morning. Swallowed a lot of water.
After work was a run out of J&A's. Dropped my Kaliber off there and while I did my run James dialed it in for me for this weekend. Thanks James.
1 hour swim
1 hour run
I get entirely way too much freaking mail.

I swear I was at work when this went down!
This guy kinda looks like me but not as good looking.

I'm not so much of a 5:00 a.m. guy
When your alarm goes off at 5 a.m. and you automatically get pissed you could be in for a long day.
Was up early for a 75 min trainer ride today. Didn't feel great getting on but felt good getting off.
Had yoga for 1 hour today during lunch and that was a good workout.
After work I ran w/ Boozy for 90 minutes. She talked about her stressful day of trying to find the right door to an office building and I educated her on the history of the Teamsters. She had no idea what the were and I was shocked. Guess that's what you get when you grow up in the upper burbs of Houston. I don't think the guys from NASA have a union.
Had the X worked on today and the bills was less than I expected. Nice!!!!
Used the new bathroom stop that O'Connor the Blonde showed me last week. Boozy was impressed with my bathroom knowledge.
Coming out of bed swinging tomorrow morning. I actually get to see Pain. Haven't seen her in over 3 weeks!

Making the effort counts.....
right??????
I didn't sleep well last night so I slept in this morning. Not the best way to kick off training for the year. I figured I'd just hit Barton Springs after work and swim a mile.
That lasted all of about 5 minutes. I was sooooo uncomfortable in the water today for a few reasons.
1- It was cold
2- I brought tinted goggles and it was getting dark. Everything looked like weeds and it was wicked dark.
3- I did not have a wetsuit and as soon as I got out I realized I really needed one.
Shitty way to start but I made an effort even though it was a shitty effort.

Ok....ok
Enough fucking around.
Tomorrow is day 1 of my training for IMCDA. 06/26/2011 is the date and I fully plan on going into the race prepared and ready.
Day 1 is already having some complications. The weather guy is saying that it's gonna be around 27 degrees @ 5:30 tomorrow morning. The pool will not open if the temps are below freezing. So I am just hoping that 32 plus degrees will show up instead. I am eagar to get back in the pool. I miss my Pain injections on Wed. and Fri. mornings.
Ok....gotta go for now. The L Train is starting it's departure from the station tomorrow. next stop...Painville.
