oct 27, 2011

AM:
swam 1K!!!!
albeit, each 25 m lap was paced and took 30+ min but i did it.
loved it, completion was nice as swimming was always an issue for me b/c as a kid i hated swimming in cold water in the rec centre, but loved the workout from it; now am doing it on my own terms and love it; as i went faster and breathed IN less, it became more efficient, how about that; i was making my self hypoxic b/c of tryin to take in more air than was needed...funny stuff
(goal is 1K in 25 min next!) - i.e. 200 m per 5 min = 8 laps in 5 min = 100 m in 2:30 = over and back in 1:15...hmmmm, lets go for 27 min as goal :)

PM:
Ran at track in Scottsdale and was not feeling it, just did some tech work
been feeling sick lately since i got back from Orlando and pushed through, now down and out with cold and coughing for a few days, will start back ON Oct 31st with some speed work thrown in, and only running per day, no swim training and no weight training for a bit until i get the technique down on what is needed in the runs - like this:
adapted from Scott Christiensen track training program
had a looksie and like the format for where i am right now, blends well with the EST i propose in training as well as what my body is feeling right now; a step up seeing i can run mid day now!
nice!
