WU: 400 SKDS, 5 X 50 (25 sculling front, 25 sculling side) Sculling is SO SLOW!!
MS:
Every 4th 25 very fast in the next set:
P 500, 400, 300, 200, 100
C-D 100 back, breast and free
My hands were numb after that track workout last night. Took forever to thaw them out!
Trying to manage a minor freak out--seems the ATP Center (which my coach works through) is closing. Cortino is starting up a new business, and is trying to arrange it so athletes are transferred to his new business without any interruption in coaching service. All sounds great, fine and dandy, but he is still working out details with the owner of ATP, and if there is a break in service, it would be the 2 weeks surrounding the IM. Last week of the taper, first week of recovery, race strategy....
Breathe, breathe, breathe...

REST DAY!!!
I think I'll be doing some stretching and spending quality time with the foam roller this evening. :)
I seem to have developed a breakfast burrito addiction. Little Anita's chorizo with green chile. Mmmmm. I had one yesterday. I keep thinking about it today. This may get ugly. :)

Fast transition to run on TM. 10 miles, fast after first 5.
First 5: 54:34 ahr 155
Next 4: 37:48 ahr 172. Last 1/2 of 4th mile was at sub-9 pace.
TM was going to time out during the last mile, so I did it as a cool down. Ahr: 153.
The first ~hour of this was while watching MTV's Charm School with Mo'Nique. That mansion is going to need a thorough delousing after those chicks leave! Um, wow.
Instructions were to swim 1600 fast. I may have done an extra 50 or 100 in here. Note to self: spaghettios do not make for a good pre-swim meal.
Well, puppy has been sick since yesterday afternoon--throwing up every couple of hours amazing amounts of fluid. I think it's from swimming in and drinking from a really scuzzy pond yesterday after getting overheated running a field. We took both dogs out to the hunt club so Sierra could get to know the place. She hasn't been in a kennel in years, and both dogs are going to be at the club's kennel when we go to CdA. Ocky took Tahoma to run the field while Sierra got to know the kennel staff and office. Tahoma got hot, then went in the pond.
She started throwing up on the ride home (in her box), then threw up about 5 times while we were out running other errands, then threw up several more times through out the evening and night. As of about 4:30 this morning, I was sure I was going to have to take her to the vet today. But she hasn't thrown up since--instead she is just very lathargic. So the upshot is I'm home today. Hopefully I will be able to get a nap in!
