Went swimming after waking up this afternoon. Of biking, running, and swimming I find the latter to be the hardest for me to do just after getting out of bed. Something about jumping in a cool pool of water just does not make me want to wake up to that. I find biking to be the easiest of the three though. Swam 2000 yards with a mix of free and breast. Threw in 200 yards of backstroke in the end. I really have bad form in the back and swim it slower than breast.
Got out for a run about 9:40pm. There was a time I always waited until dark so no one would see how slowly I ran. But those days are gone. I much prefer to run in the daytime now. I kept looking over my shoulder as the wind skidded the dead dry leaves across the road. It sounded like a dog running up behind me. I had a good run. Ran a little faster just to get it done quicker. I handled the pace fine and only noticed some fatigue the last 1/4 mile or so. Well including tonight only 4 more Midnight Shifts to go.
I noticed I had about 14 more unique hits to my blog in the last 24 hours. I wonder what brought that on?
