good Cool Morning Run 3.59 mi 00:30 08:13 pace
I made it out for a morning run. Funny how I waited for colder weather before getting out. My left heel was a bit sore but had no stabbing pain. I could definitely tell I'm out of shape. :-p

great Saturday at the Y 1600 m 00:45 45:15 pace
After the boys had their lessons, I took advantage of the Kids' Stuff daycare and managed a swimming workout of a 20 minute LSD, followed up with 3x50m SKPs. After a quick lunch, the boys and I wen... read more

Nice swim - I see they changed the swim class on you. That's too bad. I was hoping to compare classes with you. Our swim instructor thinks we all are former college swimmer rather than tri-wantabees. She was shocked when I didn't know what an IM was or know the strokes.

I've had heel bursitis continuously for 30 years, due to an inborn defect. It's not much fun. Take care of it so it doesn't become chronic like mine.

great Back in the pool 1200 m 00:30 40:14 pace
Oh how I missed the pool! It was so nice to end my workday with some easy laps and a few SKIPs.

I'm really liking the pool too. I have no idea what a SKIP is. I'm starting to feel like I can start some real pool workouts and not just try to swim until I'm exhausted.

Swim Kick Pull (actually abv. SKPs). I usually throw in a non-free with it, so it goes 50 swim (fast), 50 kick (med), 50 pull (med-slow), 50 non-free (breast, fly, or backstroke).
