I’ve Made an Executive Decision
My Birthday next year, I’m celebrating a whole week!
2 shopping trips,
going out to dinner,
1 huge birthday party with my friends,
1 sleepover with my best friend.
I’m not going to cook dinner or do dishes for a whole week.
Why is it only our children get ‘week’ long celebrations?
I’m in!
So put it in your calender…I’m off from:
February 9th through February 17th 2013. Totally OFF
🙂
We just gone done with our Oldest Monkey’s Week Long Celebratory birthday, and guess what. That’s what I want.
I’m totally exhausted!
Lack of sleep is only a part of it.
Swam a 3100 today, timed my 500M
8:11, too bad it was only a 450 I found out. And too bad, I have no times for a 500M. Only 500yds. Man, I’m slow.
My PR on the 500 yd is 7:04 or 7:06. I haven’t seen that since I stopped using the S-stroke. I so desperately want to get that back!
Now that I’m swimming 3 days per week, and doing between 9 and 10000 I should be able to. I’ve been in swim maintenance for so long. Now I’m in swim build.
Today:
500 for time. (oops, 450)
20 x 25 with 2 breaths RI (this was with fins
400 pull
16 x 25 swim with 10 second RI
300 IM (50 1 arm butterfly x 25 regular butterfly)
12 x 25 swim with 10 second RI
200 swim
8 x 25 swim RI 10 second
100 swim
4 x 25 HARD
100 cool down…did I forget anything? Seems like it.
I’ve had 3 days off. I had to take Friday OFF. Then, Saturday, I thought I better, and then, Sunday I had too.
My broken foot flared up the week before Dawn to Dusk. Not good. Not sure what I did to it, nothing new. I was in taper mode.
Frankly, I think my UGGs flared it up while walking the dogs on cold mornings 2 days in a row. Now the damn thing…is healing again. And my UGGs, I’m thinking Good Will. The toe/foot is better with the days off.
I’m not going to wear my UGGs again, even if it gets cold!
Last week, some killer workouts! Some great runs, rode the crest, rode out in Santa Fe the race course next week. Name, Tierra Torture.
There is no Torture to that course at all:
I think, Tierra Ripping Fast Super Awesome, would be a better name for it.
No swim in the Lake. We were going to tie it on to Thursday in Santa Fe but this lightening rod didn’t want to have anything to do with the Thunderstorm that rolled in!!
Plus, I thought my 2 cases of hypothermia last week were enough.
Apparently, God thought so too. Otherwise, why would she have brought lightening?!?
