Good Morning everyone.... just got home from early morning training... 6:00 am to 7:00 am..Long Course Training! When my alarm went off at 4:30 am this morning, it came to no surprise that I wanted to just roll over and tuck back into my blankets and continue to sleep... but instead I fought the urge to stay in bed and sleep and jumped out of bed. Cats were wondering what the heck was going on? Mommy up so early but as soon as they saw me packing my swim bag, they knew where I was going and cheered me on!
The drive in this morning was fast and furious! I didn't want to be late... I hate being late.... but of course I arrived on deck a few minutes late and all my team mates were already well into the warm up.
I got myself together (still sleepy) and dove into the water. A nice refreshing dip into the pool, a few strokes to get my barings and off I was right into the first set!
For someone who wanted to stay in bed, I made the right decision because work out was great! Felt good in the water, strong and easy strokes... like I never left! I've been off training for a week or so, due to lots of work responsibilities, so wasn't sure how I was going to swim. For those of you that know that feeling, it felt like I was "tapered" and ready to go! LOL
The main set was a great one and I felt comfortable and energized! Must have been the coffee I drank while driving to workout! Thank You Organo Gold! Love your coffee!
Workout was short today because of a Long Course Meet being held this morning..so no time to linger...get in..swim..get out and then Breakfast! I love these workouts like this! No time to think...just do!
Breakfast was fun, everyone chatting about Nationals coming up, about events happening in our swim club and as well just the general chit chat we all do on Sunday mornings over breakfast.
I am home now and full of energy... guess that means house work is going to get done today! It's early enough to do the housework and still enjoy this great sunny day we are to have!
Well until next time, keep watching, and reading.... definately more to come...Open Water Training is coming soon!
Ciao for now!
