Friday Run

Went out after work today to get a quick run in. I grabbed one of newer pair of tights and noticed a very small tear starting in the crotch. Not big at all, so I figured they would be good to go. A little over a mile into the run and I noticed it was a little cooler than I thought. I looked down and the small tear was growing quickly.

That will be a lesson for me when starting a run. Make sure my clothes are hole free!

Spring Training

No, not the Twins in Fort Myers...

Getting back into the swing of regular training. I have been getting myself to the pool at least once a week. In addition to that, I am slowly building my run mileage. My biking has been lower than I would like though.

In an effort to help provide incentive for myself I have taken a few steps. For swimming, I have told my sister about the open swimming times. We have gone a few times and I think having her wanting to go once in awhile will help with motivation. For running motivation I joined the Duluth Running Company spring run club. With three scheduled weekly runs, this helps when the weather is less than ideal like it was on Saturday morning (5 degrees). For the biking I have signed up for an online service for trainer workouts. I feel that will help with the monotony of indoor riding until the snow is gone.

Now I need to put together my overall training master plan and start fitting in races I want to do.
