weird swim strong spin

for some reason my swim this morning felt weird...it felt like a lot of stopping and starting and not a whole lot of good swimming on my part...but looking at the swim down it was 3200m...i guess part of it was the lane line came off the wall in the middle of one set...paused to fix it...and missed a 50 in the process...had to get out of the pool for a sec at another point (had to pee) missed a 50 pull (too bad! ha!) it was just weird...but when i was swimming it was good...nice long practice...not too much in the super fast category...which i like...we did do one set that i really am not good at...AT ALL...it is breathing 3-5-3-7 a 100 each 25 using a different breathing pattern...i am good at the threes can hit the 5s on occasion and NEVER hit the sevens...hmm...maybe someday

home to clean the closet, the dresser do some sewing and some other domestic chores...got a good sized bag ready for goodwill...i am sure there will be more to add in the next few days...payed my tuition...signed up for the olympic distance in the austin tri...after all that deliberation i went with my original plan :P...cleaned my bike and cassette and generally just tied up some loose ends around the house...that always feels good...

off to spin class with a bit of core at the beginning...i was finally able to keep on the gear and the cadence mo was telling us to be on...yeah!...i was excited about that...and was feeling really good and strong...not to say that it was easy by any means...but i was able to do it...and sometimes that gives you just that little bit of energy to fight the fatigue...

Doing the 7's will make you hit the 5's easier/more-often/more-comfortably (as well as begin to hit the 7's occasionally); doing the 9's will make you hit the 7's easier/more-often/more-comfortably ...
