Just an Average SKIRT

Sunday started with the typical too much coffee and half bagel (yes, I’m back on the bagels and slowly pulling BJ over to the dark side).  They are just so damn good - sesame toasted perfectly, MaraNatha no stir organic PB and wildflower honey.   Oh my….so delicious!

Not the best breakfast before a swim but I couldn’t hold out, I had to have it.

We headed to the pool with full bellies for a 2800 yd swim.  800 yd TT: 12:43 - I believe that is 1:35 per 100yds.  Not the fastest but not the slowest either.  Definitely a speed decline between the 400 and the 800 as I can hold under a 1:30 pace for the 400.  That’s what these weekly TTs are all about, stretching out the pace over longer distances, getting stronger in the pool.  Next week is a 1650 TT - no idea how that will end up especially after our friend’s engagement party Saturday night.  We’ll see, could be a battle as I don’t sacrifice fun (i.e. wine drinking) for training.  I’m prepared to pay the price.

BJ gave me these beautiful flowers for V-day - he also took me to my favorite store, Rags to pick out a few new items (granted it’s a consignment shop but its my favorite and I felt like Pretty Woman), then a movie and dinner.  Great weekend, today is my long run, OD bike and seeing clients.  Looking forward to a solid week with no sickness, just energetic days.
