OK, I'm trying to get back on track. I took Friday and Saturday off. I was wiped out on Friday from class, and Saturday was a long travel day back home. My body was exhausted, so I took the rest. I've been so busy for the last month and a half, and now things seem to be evening out.
On to the work out! I've given up on the Carleton College pools. They've let me down too many times now. So, off I went to Faribault to hit the pool. It was me and 3 old guys. I felt like an Olympian in the pool! Don't get me wrong, they were doing great. However, I was smokin' them! It's my mental pay back for the blind man passing me on the 5K's in Northfield.
My good friend Kari has been swimming like a maniac lately. Very unlike last year, when she procrastinated on getting in the pool. Now, she's swimming 2000 yds or better. I couldn't let her out do me in the pool! It's the one event I can do! So, I decided to swim 2000 yds today. It took me 40 minutes and it felt AMAZING!!! Take that Kennedy :D
I drove home and hit the hospital trail. There really isn't a good trail in Faribault, so I ran the safe route at home. Since I didn't work out yesterday, I felt like I needed to continue to push myself. So, I ran for 50 minutes. It was a really good pace too. Just over 10 minute miles. How did this happen? Who am I? You guys must be a bit confused to if you just joined the blog and only read last years entries. I'm loving what my body can do now!
Weigh in day tomorrow. I'm close to what is a big milestone for me. I'll let you know what it is tomorrow, if I make it.

I'm so proud of you! You are going to smoke me on the run, girl. I'm so far behind on that training.
And I'll take your 2000 and raise you 200, Lufkin. LOL!
