and so it begins...

i guess we can go two ways with that title....today was the first day of the semester...so school has begun...accounting and advanced nutrition today...tomorrow is medical nutrition therapy and nutrition education and counseling

and today was the first workout where i could feel i was working harder than i have in a while...mo was calling out cadence numbers and at one point i just totally laughed...there was no way i could hold them...muscles (quads!)were burning...and i loved it...even though it was hard...i know it is worth it...

this morning's swim there was a 10x100 pull...i have decided i am no longer afraid of the pull...this is a good thing...and i am finally starting to keep up...mostly...swam with a great lane...we were without coach but found some workouts in the pump shed...i guess our am coach went to the other pool...we just changed days so it is understandable...it was packed though...

this does not mean that my arms don't feel like they are going to fall off...because they do....but i no longer want to get out of the pool when i see a pull set...oh and i got new goggles...i am hoping that i don't have raccoon eyes for the rest of the day from them...we will see

now...off to bed so i can get up and do it again...i really do like having a schedule :D

Hooray for new beginnings...LOVE them. And, yes, that workout was insanely difficult...in that wonderfully difficult way. Glad you didn't get too much homework on your first day back at school :)

Jealous of your schedule. I was talking to another Houston marathoner last night, and we were saying we both already feel fat, lazy and slothful. Ha.
