fitness: swimming

calories 271, effort: 2/5, distance: 1001m duration: 0:30 feeling: great

Still managed to get browned by the sun. I need to get that sunshirt STAT. Swam a bit harder so got in another lap. I think that I could do much better if I pushed myself even a little bit, because it doesn’t really kick my arse. Lazy swimmer is…

Weather: sunny

Running after 10am – bad idea. It’s going to be HOT running in summer. I need some sort of plan.
Ok, so it took me 3 minutes to run 200m. I’m not sure that’s true. But, at least I’m _consistently_ slow.

Weather: hot sunny

Band breaks are too long at Unity Hall. But the long, fast songs make me work. Fun!

Felt a bit fatigued from running in the morning, but not bad at all. But I _did_ sweat like nobody’s business. Humid + left over running.

Must. Run. Earlier. Sun is very bright.
Forgotten where I’d gotten to in the c25k so just did a week 7 run again.
I’m not getting any faster. But it is getting easier.

I think I need to push myself a bit harder. At the moment this is just a slow toodle doo pace, mostly breast stroke. But the ride home up the hill afterwards kicks my arse.

Pushed myself harder than usual. We’ll see how the knee goes.

Golly, it’s getting hot. I’m going to need to get to the pool before 10 to avoid being _blinded_ and _burninated_.
Obviously scared those boys last week – they didn’t show.
Considering stroke correction, because I hate doing things incorrectly.

Slow runner is
slow.
Had a proper rest day yesterday to ease the knees. Still slow today. But that’s ok because I am _strong_.
