am swim at barton springs...guess most of the cap tex group is getting to the pool a bit earlier than 6.30...so they were all swimming....in lil drafting groups...off my start times...but that is all good..we all say hi and try to recognize each other in swim caps goggles and wetsuits...not an easy task...was standing in the water ready to swim by 6.40...and off i went...just me just swimming...swam ~2000 (yards? or something)...5 crack laps...no problems...good sighting...but all alone so no draft advantage...but hey i did it...i am very excited about that... :) woo woo over a mile!...
school...was good...finished the lecture material for chem class...i am already studying for the exam...the probability of me getting a 94 on this last exam is low...so i have a feeling that i am going to have to take the final...dad give me some osmosis learning on this thermodynamics stuff!!!...come on genetics!!...did some lecture stuff on the nutrition of children and then moved on to alcohol....not pretty...but very informative...
thursday pm bike work out at the veloway...we did the 8 mile loop on south mopac...first lap warm up followed by 6x5m strong 5m easy for me this was a total of three loops...with the last portion of the last lap a very strong pace to get back to the meeting point that was "be back here by 7.30" and i was a _good_ 10 minutes off eek sorry coach...but the work out felt great...i love the me pushing myself feeling...i couldn't feel anyone behind me or in front of me...so it was me and rocketship...flying...on the way back...i was feeling bad that i was going to be late...so i hopped into the big ring and just hauled in...i got up to 30...but just for a second...the wind was rough!...1h23m 25.18miles
