Wednesday April 7th

I was able to swim 1000 m today. Thanks to Jesse for going with me...keeps me honest! Felt good to be in the water today and I felt like I could go 500 more meters. Today's goal was to work on both distance and technique. Swimming really is a lot about technique.
What I worked on...
- fully reaching out with my arms and twisting my body with every stroke...this becomes a challenge as the workout progresses
- making the proper s curve in the water
- breathing every three strokes...not sure if I'm ready, but I'd like to try every five one of these days

In other news, I just signed up for the Disneyland Half Marathon in September. Should be fun!

Off to bed to get in an early workout. Wasn't able to go on Tuesday morning since I didn't get enough sleep the night before. I can parent if I'm a little bit tired, but exhausted Mommy is a bear. Kids come first.

Thanks again to my wonderful hub for putting both kids to bed so that I could make it to the gym : )
