Had a good few training days to end the recovery week. Today's is worth a mention. I headed to Sunken Meadow State Park for an easy 50 min run and was prepared to take my first open water swim (solo, I might add). Before the run, I strolled down to the boardwalk and looked out over an angry Long Island Sound. A few white caps, significant chop, strong breeze, 57/55 degree (air/water temps respectively), and my savior...a sign that read, "Swimming Prohibited". Easily my favorite phrase of the day.
Finished my run and made a beeline for the calm, warm, and perfectly unthreatening waters of the pool at Golds where I knocked out 4x500s before spending the rest of the afternoon at the screamfest. Sorry, dance competition.
Looking forward to my meeting with coach Joe on Tuesday to set up my race schedule.
Something tells me next week's training is going to be a beast.
