Training going well.

The summary

• Friday Swim class
• Saturday 6 mile Run
• Sunday 5 mile Run

Friday night, I had my second swim class. While I'm still really slow & inefficient, I saw progress. Besides that, I didn't cramp up. I'm looking forward to seeing more improvement there, I just need some more time in the water.

This weekend I picked up the Garmin Forerunner 305, it's pretty awesome tool. It really helped me see where I stand in my running.

Saturday I ran 6 miles, and it seemed pretty hilly. You can see my stats below.


Sunday
I did a 5 mile run. My legs didn't have the same spring in them as they did yesterday. I also noticed that I get really hungry around mile 3. I think I'm going to start carrying some z-bars with me.

An Eventful weekend

On Friday night, I took my first swim lesson. It was an hour long and it kicked my butt. It was an amazing workout. I learned I can't muscle the water. Hopefully in time, I'll get better.

With five minutes left, my calf cramped up. I'm thinking it was actually a sprain or strain because my leg is still tender after lots of ben gay and icy hot.

Since my leg was tender, I took Saturday off.

On Sunday, we did the five borough bike tour. Great ride and great weather.

We logged about 50 miles at decent pace.
