30 Swim & 30 Bike

Well, Carleton College has it out for me. They really want me to fail in my training! The only pool they have for open lap swimming was closed today, with no signs or warning. I went in to the pool area, only to find what I guess was beginning water polo. UGH!

I wanted to go home and pout. That would be the worst choice I could make. So, I drove through the throngs of students out for the Ultimate Frisbee Tournament (day 2) to get to the gym. It's rainy and 50 degrees out, so an indoor workout was in order.

I got on that fancy bike for 45 minutes. I rode hard! It felt good to get out some of my frustrations. Then, it was upstairs to run a good 15 minutes. My friend Kari suggested I work on upping my pace. So, I pushed it fairly hard. I ran 1.5 miles in around 15:30 (I didn't have my watch so I was using the wall clock).

All in all, I'm glad I worked out. It was frustrating, but it's done for today.
