This week is still a pretty hard training week before we start backing off next week. Today was the usual Monday swim/run double. Had a good swim with Julie again...I've gotten very spoiled this summer swimming only with Julie or having my own lane and tailoring every workout however I want...it's been perfect! My right shoulder has had a slight twinge lately...it was fine in the water today, but I felt it a bit later in the morning. Nothing really bad, but I need to be nice to it...
Second on the workout list today was an interval run. I had to do an errand for work anyway, so I went to the track at Montlake to do the run while I was out and about. The track is dirt with a few small slopes and some overgrowth...it's kind of crappy, but in a nice neighborhood and it did the job. The workout was 5 x 800's...the first one felt lousy, but then I felt pretty good and held a good pace for the rest of them. Good workout.
