After the GLUTTONOUS Mother’s Day/First Communion weekend eating, it was refreshing to get back to normalcy; Meaning…working out!!! Particularly since the lady at JCPenney called me (in so many or few words) LARGE. It messes with that psychotic part of my brain….old thoughts and food issues start to rear their ugly heads! 👿👹👺#dontLISTEN
I decided the pool was an excellent start to the Monday workout routine. The water was perfect and I couldn’t wait to jump in. My friend, Leslie, is still out of town, sadly, but my other buddy, Sam joined me. I love swimming, but I’m sad I can only get so much in because of time. Sam and I are thinking of doing a triathlon together again. I was courting the race in May (30th to be exact), but time got in the way (basketball!) and I wasn’t able to get my bike to the shop for its preseason tune up (and aero bars!!!😄). June it is, then!! It’s more realistic AND school is OUT!!
I added one more 50m to the workout, aiming for the goal of 10 x 50m @ :60.
- 200m warm up freestyle
- 7 x 50m (freestyle) @ :60
- 100m cool down
Total : 650m
Again, it doesn’t look like much, but I’m happy to be out there. I’m happy that at (almost) 43, I can do a 50m freestyle in 40 seconds. (SN: at my peak.. 27 seconds was my best time). #illtakeit
I’m hoping the rest of the week will be:
Tuesday: swim
Wednesday: run
Thursday: rest
Friday: run
Saturday: run or CrossFit
How was your Monday?
What does your workout week look like?
You say “trying”, but I say you’re killing it! We can only do as much as we can do. 🙂
