Double duty day!
It was actually really nice out today, sunny albeit a bit cold, so I did decide to ride downtown. I took the slightly longer route - 7 miles. Shortly after leaving, I realized I was really thirsty. I need to remember to BRING LIQUIDS with me on rides! I ended up stopping off at a convenience store to get some gatorade. Overall, I felt pretty good on the ride - not too tired. Temperature control worked well - I wore jeans which I folded to the knee to keep away from the gears, a long sleeve shirt, and a fleece. Temperature was about 50 degrees Farenheit.
I did end up at the pool. My swim workouts so far have been fairly light - my goal was to get in the water and MOVE. Today, I wanted to push it further to see what I could do.
I did a couple of timed laps at the beginning of the workout - I am swimming 50 meters in approximately 1:30, give or take about 5 seconds. The rest of the workout, I made it a point to swim fairly hard. Sixteen laps in total, half-mile, booya. :D Overall, I was happy with how I felt during the swim, albeit a bit tired by the end.
My wrist is pretty sore tonight. Not sure if I overstressed it with the bike/swim. I iced for 20 minutes, and will brace it overnight. Hopefully it'll feel better in the morning.
Happy with today's work!
