I did and early swim before work this morning. I didn’t want to push too hard, because I knew I was going to do the New City time trial later. I did a 300 warm up, 2×150’s drills, 1×600, 2×300, 3×200. Trying to keep the 300’s and the 200’s faster than the 600. 200 pull to finish.
I was nervous about the time trial, it was my first time going out there. It was good to have Steven with and Lance C. They were newbies too. I was #43. I was glad to know the slower people started first , so I was like 4th out. When I started out, I felt like I was running a 5K. Whenever I run a 5k, I cant breathe, and my legs are super tight for like 5 min until I loosen up and relax. I finally relaxed a bit and felt OK, but there was a strong head wind on the way out. When I reached the turn around, I was so happy my brother or Steven hadn’t passed me! All these guys, and girls are so fast. The way back was much faster with the tail wind. I finished in 31:21. Not bad for me, and now I have some thing to improve on. Brenda R. and a few others slipped their running shoes on and did a quick run afterwards. I will definitely do this next time. Great idea. I hope to be back in two weeks. Running wild and looking pretty. ( and that is a guy that sings that song.?!)
