Day 51: Today was kind of a weird day. I am normally off today but to save some leave at work I switched some days around. I was hoping to swim tonight but when Jordan surprised me with Brewers tickets for here in Atlanta for my birthday I couldn't so no! =) We had a great time except the Brewers lost =( So since today was busy with work and the baseball game I wasn't able to get a swim in. Hopefully I will be able to make it up at some point.
Day 52: I think since I enjoyed having Monday off so much I just wanted to take another day off and I kind of did. Except I did hop on my trainer for about 30 mins to make myself feel a little better. I promise tomorrow will be a lot better of a day and a busy training day to kick it back into gear.
Day 53: Today was a good training day. I headed up to Cartersville for all 3!!!! It was actually a chilly day, but i was nice since I was training most the day. I had a nice 4 mile run that was flat and I really enjoyed it. You don't get a lot of flat runs here in GA. After I ran I joined Fox's group for a nice 27 mile bike ride. I really like riding up in Cartersville, because I think I can expect similar terrain in Wisconsin. After today's ride, it made me realize that I really need to work on climbing those hills. Hills and I really have a love/hate relationship, but who doesn't. Today's ride was also a like weird, because our route takes us through an area where they got hit really hard by all those Tornadoes that touched down. As we were riding through there it just felt weird and it just wasn't real. It real looked like a very bad scene in a movie, and knowing it was real made it hit really close to home. There was so much devastation there it was really sad and really mad you grateful. After the ride we all went over to Red Top Mountain to swim in the lake. Today the lake water was 70 degrees and it was warmer then the air. I really enjoyed the 1.2 mile swim I did in the lake. Something about the open water makes swimming longer distances like that so much easier to do.
