Today I mixed it up... I swam instead.

I went to warm up dry-land training first just to wake up the bones. then I got in the water and swam.

worked on freestyle today... I started out with a slow 100 M. then a faster 100 M. Then a moderate 

100 M. then a all out sprint 100 M.

Then I did another sprint 100 M. then a moderate 100 M. then a slower 100 M. then a easy 100 M.

after repeating that twice I did a fifty choice kick and I finished.

Training tip: Do close to the same warm up every day, I do a 100 M. choice swim, then a 100 M. kick, then if I'm working on breast stroke that day I do a 100 M. choice scoll.

Today was a beautiful day for a ten mile run it was sixty degrees.

The Porter Rockwell trail is really amazing, it followed some rail lines.

And my Adidas held out surprisingly well in the dirt.

There was almost no traffic no cars to make me stop at crosswalks.

at mile 5 I took a GU which gives me a burst of energy.

It was early and I was tired but I finished.

This is a picture my dad took I'm way in the distance.
