More Woes

The water was cold Monday, and I knew it would be no warmer Tuesday, maybe colder. That coupled with the knowledge that the temperature outdoors would be in the 20s caused the prospect of arising at 3:45 a.m. to be more than I could deal with. So I slept in and went to the pool after work. I swam

1,500 27:32 (1:45)
500 for time 7:47 (1:33)
1,500 28:14 (1:52)
200 for time 3:03 (1:31)
1,100 20:41 (1:52)
total: 4,800 yards = 4,387 meters

I took a small shuffle. My shoes are worn out, and I am so broke I can't pay attention. So after the eleven miler Monday, I took it easy and only ran 2.2 miles. Then I went to Plate City Gym and did a bunch. Since I did not lift Monday, I did pushes, pulls, and I threw in some dead lifts. On the dead lifts (I am still being extremely cautious), I pulled

5 X 135
4 X 145
3 X 155

I think now I need to start ramping up the reps a little faster, maybe adding another set at 135 and building a good base there before pushing the weight up much more. Anyway, it turned out to be a solid day. Thank you, Jesus.
