And it probably wasn't the smartest thing either, but I have no regrets. The promise of course was an easy swim, followed by an easy run, and while I did follow up on the swim part, I went a little bit overboard on my run. Not that I didn't go easy, but I did go quite a bit further than I planned. I was considering 7-10 kms but unfortunately nature intervened. You see it was the most glorious afternoon! Four degrees below zero, strikingly blue skies with narry a cloud, and just enough of a NW wind to keep me honest. I simply could not stop,
And while I felt kind of crappy in the late afternoon, I'm doing okay now.
Tomorrow I'm gonna take it easy!
I usually find those promises easier to keep the day before a long run, and I intend on trying for 25 on Saturday. It's gonna be interesting to see if I have the necessary resolve.
In the pool I'm adding 50 metres every time out and so far it all feels good. My hope is to continue to swim at the same pace while gradually increasing the distance. I'm pretty confident based on how it's going so far. It feels effortless.
