Well it's done! and boy was it tough! Every work out was ramped up so the body was feeling pretty toasted by the end of this week. My biggest accomplishment this week was my swimming.. I am now able to swim 2100 meters fairly well. Today I was able to swim 300 meters a few times non-stop then only taking 5 second breaks in between which is what you are supposed do after every 100 meters so I am pretty proud of myself. I thought I would never be able to swim more then 50 meters non-stop, I love this. I can see how this program does have you advance in your progress perfectly. It's working like a charm for me. I now look forward more to my swimming workouts.
The cycling is going great as well. Having the sun shinning and the roads dry while being out there really gets you motivated and so very happy he he... Ivan and I have been able to sneak in a few cycling workouts outside right after work now because it is lighter longer now, so that has been great!
I am worried about my running only because I feel I am not running enough and I feel my swimming and cycling sometimes takes away from my running but I believe in this training program we are doing and it's only been 3 weeks now so I have to give it time. I also know that this is all very new to me and my body has to adjust and I believe it will all come together in the end.
I am so looking forward to our recovery week now and even more looking forward to coming home after work tomorrow and putting on my PJ's and doing nothing! Awwwwwwww life is good! :)
Oh one more thing today Ivan and I ran west wood lake twice and the lake was so beautiful because it was very still and at the back end of it, it had some ice still on top and in the back ground with the sun shinning bright a man in a canoe was fishing.. Oh if only I had my camera with me. This is why we are out there!

Well how way your pygama day, Trigal? All rested up now? It seems my other comments did not make it up here yesterday but I was complimententing you on how much well you seem to be doing in your swimming. Also don't worry too much about the running right now. It is a bit of an adjustment to make from running 6 days a week down to 2 or 3 but the cross training will get you in terrific shape. The few runs you have just put everything you got into them. They should be all quality workouts to achieve the desired effect of increasing your speed. Rock on Tam.
