Monday

School, pool, and Plate City. That is the outline of a pretty typical day in the life of Zane Hodge right now. After my tour of duty, I come home and change into my swim jammer, grab a towel and my swim bag, and head to the pool where I get lost in the rhythms of my own swim stoke. That is why I always fish out the floating thermometer at Twin Rivers before I start my swim. Sometimes I zone out so much that I am swimming on autopilot, and then I hit that thermometer in the water. Not that it hurts, but I am so startled that I tighten up and am in danger of pulling something. 

Monday when I got there, Linda Gail was doing her thing in the north lane, so I took my customary south lane and started doing mine which was

2,100 38:31 (1:49)
10 X 50 @1:12
300 small paddles
6 X 50 @1:16
4 X 100 medium paddle
total: 3,600 yards, plus 250 kick with fins

At Plate City, Trevor and I laid some more blocks while we lifted. It was bench night for me while Trevor benched and did some strongman stuff. I pressed

20 X 45
13 X 95
10 X 115
7 X 140
4 X 145
4 X 145
4 X 145

On the incline, I did

10 X 95
8 X 100
5 X 110

I also did squats and rotator cuff work. Plat City is looking good. I will post a video soon. Thank you, Jesus, for a good day.
