new schedule...again

had to rearrange things to fit in all the coached workouts i am supposed to be doing...so this week the schedule is different again...i hope this is going to be the final one but i will see when i get my 24 week plan from my coach sometime this week...i think...

driving to the pool i saw a pick-up truck through the window of the green mesquite restaurant on barton springs road...not sure what happened there...but looks suspiciously intentional...

monday started with 1,200 at barton springs...was swimming by 6.15...that first length is always hard when swimming alone...600 warm-up then build through a 400 and finish with a 200 fast...had an oops moment and realized i was in the middle of my building 400 and had rested but quickly pushed off and made up for it on the way down...the 200 was strong...i don't know about fast...

finished up some stuff for father's day...did some home improvement work...and some reading...some deep cleaning...

specialty run at o'henry at 6pm...started with core work at 5.45...15 minutes of planks and crunches, supermans and mountain climbers, push-ups and bicycles...then some 6 inches 12 inches that reminded me of many a pre-season soccer practice...warm-up run...drills and and then the workout...half mile hill repeats...to start it was a long hill that got steep about half way up...a short flat section...a downhill..a flat then a steep ~short hill to end...sandbag recovery (walking was ok) repeat for a total of 4...5 if you were feeling great...my legs were feeling a bit of tightness in the calf and out side of left knee (IT? maybe) so i opted for four...but kept them on a negative split at 10k pace...so i was happy with that...i worked hard...home for chocolate soy, an ice bath and dinner...TP rolling then bed...i like sleeping...
