Big Workout Weekend

So, on Saturday I ran 10.5 miles. That was great.
Then on Sunday, we joined Coach Lesley and gang for an indoor ride of an hour, followed by a 2 mile run.

We went home and hoped there was no message from Pam about swimming at 11:30am.. There wasn't. whew. Til she called at 10:30.. feeling a bit of peer pressure, I packed up the swim gear and went off to Madison Pool.. Part of it was interest in seeing a new (old) pool.

Erin, a swim coach from somewhere, was there to lead Pam, Val, and myself thru a workout. A workout that included all 4 strokes. And no, the side stroke does not count. She helped my beginner self with the butterfly and backstroke. Although, I think I will leave the 'Fly to Michael "Bong Boy" Phelps. My legs were pretty fatigued from all the previous workouts so even doing that for 25 yds. was killer. I felt like I was just thrashing my way down the lane, hoping not to sink. But by the time we got to the set of 10 x 50 Free's, I was good. Love those. For some reason Val was not going as fast as we all know she can, so we were able to somewhat keep pace.

Then I got home and crashed.
