8/20 - 8/26

Trevor had to workout alone Monday because Penny and I went to Over 60s, which we do once per month. Sheyenne Chatham was the entertainment. For a ten-year old, I can't remember ever hearing a better singer. Although I could not lift, I did make it to the pool and swam

1,000
1,600 countdown
100 easy
total: 2,700 meters

Tuesday I only swam 1,700 (countdown set), but at the gym, Trevor and I worked legs for the first time. We both need it; maybe we can stick with the lower body work.

Wednesday I did not do a warm up set at the pool but started right off with a countdown set. The first 100 was a little tough but it get better quickly. At Plate City I benched

17 X 70
10 X 95
8 X 120
4 X 130
4 X 130
1 X 135
4 X 130
4 X 130
14 X 120

I was stronger, noticeably, than a single week ago. 

Thursday I had to work until 4:00 at the Moorhead campus so I could not get my swim in and the gym work. Trevor and I did shoulders, biceps, and traps.

Friday morning, I had the tough call between going to the pastors' breakfast and going to the pool with no worries about time. I chose the pool and did 4,500 straight, the longest swim I have done since June 3, 2017. I am beginning to believe that not only can I swim, but I can swim long again.

Saturday I worked out alone hitting most of the upper body and late in the afternoon I went to the pool for an easy 1,800.

For the week, I 

swam four times for 12,700 meters,
lifted four times,
and ambulated 4.91 miles.

It's getting better, thank the Lord.
