8/1 -8/7

Almost no running and ten pounds of weight gain make Zane a mighty dull boy. But I look forward to a better week coming up. Monday I swam

1,200
10 X 50 @ 1:15
300
10 X 100 @ 1:59
300
1,600 with small paddles
4 X 100 medium paddles @ 2:30
total: 5,000 meters.

Then in the afternoon I lifted weight hitting 2 X 150 on the bench.; This year I plan to push the bench to a new record. In 2015, I hit 166 for my modern PR. Way back in the early '80s, I benched 185 for one rep. But that was when I had small children. For some reason, when your children get older you tend to become weaker and fatter.

Tuesday I swam

6 X 100 @ 1:59
400
3 X 100 @ 1:59
