Ducks in a row

This morning I did a solo lake swim at Seward Park...It was a little odd to start out totally alone with calm water in the same place where 1,100 triathletes were stirring things up last Sunday. I had a really nice swim and, on the way back, as I breathed on my right, I saw a row of about 8 ducks in a perfect paceline swimming along side me. Glad somebody's got their ducks in a row!

Yesterday was a long run...8 miles, which is the longest I've run in quite a while. And, I gotta say, 8 miles feels long again. But it was OK, except for the last mile which was a bit of a slog. My hamstring was pretty mad later in the day, but I threw 2 Aleve at it and it seemed better this morning.

Yesterday's run:
