good up to Golden Bear pool 2.5 mi
Ran up to the pool, swam 20 laps, ran most of the way back, so about 1.25 mi in each stretch, which is much longer than I've been able to run since June. Not sure what the difference was. Ma... read more

injured Tilden, Inspiration Pt 0.93 mi
Another knee test. Ibupfrofen, brace, went barefoot. I was originally just walking in flip flops and hadn't planned on running, but became enormously frustrated by very slow runners passing m... read more

alright Golden Bear Pool 500 yd
Pretty lame, but I haven't swum for a while, as evidenced by the constant sensation of drowning and mild subsequent vertigo. Never thought I'd say this but I kind of miss running.

good Spieker Pool 400 yd
16 lengths, plus 30-40 minutes of hitting the squash ball around. After playing ping pong for the first time in a while a few weeks ago, I remembered how much more fun competitive sports are compa... read more

swim
good Spieker Pool 1000 yd
40 lengths in a 25 yd pool. I can't believe this pool is shorter than Temescal. Maybe it just feels longer b/c it has way more square footage and giant lanes. Also it is filled with undergrads... read more

good 1133.33 yd
More respectable. 24 lengths freestyle, 10 with a snorkel. I feel like what little form I have goes out the window with the snorkel, but it's easier to focus on kicking. Also I think the pool... read more

blah Temescal Pool 733.33 yd

I have not. Don't really know what kind of exercises I should be doing, but maybe I should look it up.

I had tendonitis in both my knees back in 2005, a lot of two leg and single leg squats, leg extensions, leg curls, and balance exercises.

alright Temescal Pool 1333.33 yd
16 laps freestyle, 4 laps kicking, 20 laps freestyle (not counting the kickboarding in my distance). Actually felt a lot better toward the end, by which I mean I felt like I could exert myself *an... read more

alright Temescal Pool 800 yd
First time at the Temescal pool. Pretty cool, not that crowded. Water tasted weirdly salty but for $5 I can deal. 24 lengths of the pool, plus some kickboarding. The problem with swimming is tha... read more

injured 2.33 mi
Ace + ibuprofen but still no love. I think I need to give it a rest for a week or something. Maybe I'll try and hit the pool again.

Knee wasn't debilitating but still not great, despite ibuprofen.

injured 5.02 mi
Was shooting for a longer run to test out my knee. Apparently these barefoot shoes have not solved my knee problems, or maybe I need to try to work up to longer distances after a week off. Still,... read more
