Wednesday November 11

                                  Happy Veterans Day!

Distance - Swim 1700 yards
First day back so i took it easy.
400 warmup
100 x 4 (25 finger tip. 25 catch-up, 25 kick, 25 sprint)
200 pull drill with paddles
200 buoy (focus on hips, breathing to opposite side)
100 x 4 medley (25 breast, 25 back, 25 free, 25 butterfly)  a very poor butterfly I might add
100 kick with fins
Ran out of time for a cool down because I started chatting with my teamate Jessica who is also doing Ironman.  Good luck Jess!

Nutrition -  Glass of cherry juice before, banana and chocolate milk after.  Yea I know, I gotta work on nutrition.

Song of the day - It's always the last song I hear before getting in the pool and I wind up singing it over and over.  Today it was Tears of a Clown by Smokey Robinson.  Thanks Smokey.

  2. Hey Pete,

    We are soooo proud of you! I'm looking forward to reading your posts and sharing the experience (via computer) with you. Maybe you'll get our favorite girl to join you in some of your training.

    Charlie and I and the boys can't wait to see you achieve your goal next July!!

    Love, laughs and good luck,
    Tracy
