Frustrated

I've been upset and frustrated these last few days. Not to mention saddened to see all these Father's Day messages. Not because mine is gone now but because we never had any type of relationship. If nothing else, he taught me the man I didn't want to be...so I guess there's always a lesson to be learned. I wasn't going to add the frustration of missing out on some training time...so, off to the Church of Sweat to exercise demons.

And oh by the way, can I just say that those gym colors are driving my crazy?! I feel like I'm in some weird Joker-esque torture place when I'm in there. At least I had the gym to myself. A solid 90 minute lift session with a cardio warmup. One positive thing in the day at least!

Trying to get back at it

So wait, you mean I can't take a week plus off and not make up all my training and regain my level of fitness with one workout?! Sonuva!

While I am able to swim, bike, run, lift...I've been struggling with the motivation and desire to do so. I wish I could put my finger on it but I can't. It's really weird too because it's the first time I've really found myself in this position. Well, only thing to do is to try and get back at it. So, found some cycling coverage, got my butt on the bike and knocked out a solid hour.

NO matter my fitness shape, I feel like I just get on the bike and ride forever. I'll take that as a goofdthing. Haha 

The water humbles you...

Ya, that face kind of says it all.

A 1200m swim (200 opener, alternating sets of 50 kick/50 pull/100 free, 100 cool down). Oh my! I never cease to be amazed how easy it is to be humbled by the water. Strength means little to nothing in the water...it's all about proper form. A form which I've lost. Talk about a perishable skill! Ooph. I'm gonna feel that tomorrow. Well, the one good thing to take away is that my hip feels great after all those sets. Not as strong as it was of course but no pain. Now to build on that!
