Ironman Training – Day 75

Written by admin on December 15, 2006 – 9:39 pm -

Couldn’t believe it, but I got up again today and did my workout.  If I was going to get my swim in,  I knew I had to do it first thing.  So we got to the pool, and I worked my way through the 3200 yards swim.  the main set was the toughest, and I had doubts I could get all 6 sets in, but I did it.  I came in under the time goals, which was good.  But it’s the days like this when your mind is saying “can i really do this, what if i just did 2 or 3 sets”.  So this is when your mind has to be strong, and take on these challenges.  I consider today a success, and a huge mental confidence builder.

I was really tired after that swim, but while i was at the gym, had to get a workout in on the weights.  So I did that with what i had left..however, i felt more energy when I got home.  Maybe i just needed to work through a slow morning.

I also just got a massage from Jess, which totally helped my legs.  They were feeling so heavy, and so worked, but after the massage, i feel fresh and relaxed.  I still have work to do on stretching, but for tomorrow, I am eager to get it done.

good night.
