I'm back baby!
First good morning run of the new season.
Ice on the creek - Here we go.
Started slowly, 6:20 pace, stopped once at turnaround. Did a 5:50 pace on way back and picked it up to 4:50 for 1k as I passed a young woman runner, who was obviously terrorized by my ninja balaklava and the danger words - "good morning". It's dark, it's scary (not really, but it looks like it), there's dogs with big teeth (making monty python bunny gestures) I don't really blame her.
Great run. Was hard to get it going, but now I feel good.

Nice little run at White Butte trails.
Incredibly windy and bone-chilling cold, but well sheltered on the trail. I'm glad Starcorp and Lane and I went. It was a great run, Went further than I would have done if I stayed in town.
HRM is wonky again.

Swim class.
1000m time trial at 22:21
Lots of other drills including one where we had to kick 25, do 20 crunches, swim 15, 20 squats, swim 15, 10 pushups and finish with 25 kicks X 5.
Exhausted again.
Sleepless night #3 in a row. This is getting troubling. It didn't help that the wind is blowing 80k/hr out and that all I could think about was my run this morning.
And I got a certain text from someone at 5:55 a.m. Hmmm.
On the plus side, I saw a man yesterday about a certain ink design and, so far it looks like all systems are go and I will have to give up swimming as early as next weekend for a week or so.
Trail run today. If I grow the balls to go out in this wind.

Cyclocross trail. Pushed hard. This is tiring work! Muddy in places. Very hilly. Got a fantastic workout! Harder than anything on the road...except for wind, maybe...did I mention wind was gusting to 70 k/hr?
Yeah. hard work. But fun.
Should do this more often!

Xterra Brick...Extremely windy, but felt god finding my legs after the bike ride. Took about 5 minutes of awkward running and funny gait and then my legs just clicked into gear!
Lots to do today. Don't know where to begin. Still am not getting enough sleep.
I think I feel a little better.
I might go see a man about a horse...or maybe an M-dot thing.

Well that was interesting. Good solid workout with Brendan. Kinda tough, but my blood pressure is really low. I had to stop a few times. I'm still kinda shaky. I'm trying to refuel and rehydrate. I didn't sleep very well and I don't think I have enough liquid in me. Not a good way to start the day.
I'm thinking of happier times when I used to dance with the squirrels.
Terrible sleep. Too much going on inside this coconut.
No time to stress about, it's Brendan time!
