Someone Doesn't Want Me To Swim This Week

I think there is a swim conspiracy against me. On Monday I headed over the the Courtice pool for some lane swimming. The plan was 1 hour of swimming and a 30 minute run. I thought there were too many cars in the parking lot when I got there...something is up. Because of the heat alert they were offering a free public swim until 9:00 pm. Pool was packed. Headed home. Went for a 12K run.

Tuesday night I had a family gathering to go to. Plan was to zip home after work and get an hour on the trainer. Was late getting out of work. OK this thing probably won't go that late, so maybe when I get home........ Was like a cat on a hot tin roof at the family gathering. Watching the clock tick away. When it got past 10 I realized there would not be a workout today. Bummed!!!

Wednesday - 12k run...all good.

Thursday - Plan was to swim 8:30 pm to 9:30 pm and then 30 minute run. Turned on the news at 6ish....tornado warnings. Come on. So I figured at worst maybe I get swimming and the power goes out and they kick me out with free passes again. Not even close. So the storm is pounding and the we lose power around 7:45pm. Stayed out until 11:15pm. So can't swim and can't use the treadmill.....the thought of riding the trainer and taking a flashlight with me did cross my mind...but I didn't do that. So NOTHING again.

Friday - This is my usual rest day and I have plans tonight...so not sure I am able to fit anything in.

A disappointing week for sure. Have to make up for it with a big Saturday and Sunday.

Just 22 days left!!!

I am sure I did not over train this week.
