I wish I could write about how excited I am to be training. But I'm not.
Today's plan included 20 minutes of swimming and 20 minutes of run/walking. The only time I could get the swim in was 6am. The weather was -34C. My garage door is broken so the car had been parked out all night and my hands froze to the steering wheel. The pool was busy and I managed to get a complete sinus rinse during my second lap.
The whole thing felt like a prolonged drowning rather than a swim.
However, I did do better than I did on Friday.
I hope the nose plug I ordered with my swim cap will help.
I really need a nap, but my 2 year old isn't going to let me have one.
It will get better.
I just wish I could afford better gear. I found a great deal on a triathlon bike for $200. I don't have $200. So, I'm off to the basement to spend some time fixing up the $5 special I have almost ready to go in my basement. I miss being a two income house.
As for the wine, that will have to wait until after I work the evening shift tonight.
