Now where was I...

As often happens I've gotten behind on the blogging...  So I did the swim clinic.  And learned, I'm a bad swimmer.  :-)  I think I did figure some things out, but need to get in the pool and work out the kinks.  My stroke was even worse than I thought.  But my breathing is actually not all that bad.  Just need to swim more efficient, move "new water" etc etc

Ran 3 miles last night outside.  Very slow, but didn't feel to bad.  Going to really narrow down my weightlifting (6 rep max, 2-3 sets, heavy weight) and run run run and get to the pool!

re Rewind

I had a post ready to go the other night, but my netbook battery died before I posted it.  Days I've worked out in March: 2, 4, 5, 10, 12  I also have my "official" tri training ready.  Will run for 35 minutes tonight and lift chest

Week-end Update

A couple workouts over the week-end:  Fri- Dips/Bench/Flyes/Incline dumbbell press/Machine Row and then 2 500 M on the rowing machine.  I was sucking wind on the rowing.  Legs were dead from the squats and lunges.  A long way to go to get some endurance.

Sat- Pull ups/VBar pull downs/deadlifts/dumbbell row/wrist and arm curls
 Felt good after.  Lifted pretty heavy (for me)

Need to get the running/biking going even if it's indoors.  Will pull out the triathlon training schedule and get something set up.  Doing a 5k May 7th which will be here soon!

Thirsty Thursday

Got in a leg workout yesterday:  squats, barbell lunges, calf raises, dead lifts.  Legs feel pretty good today, but were a bit wobbly last night.  I have bad knees so I don't do very heavy squats.  Need to start getting a workout schedule to get ready for 5K in May and signed up for first triathlon of season on May 22nd in Albert Lea.  I'll get more details on the races coming up...
