Christmas Eve

Day off from work - not much time to work out though.



I ran 4 miles Tuesday morning.



Swam 3,000 yards Tuesday night.



Ran 6 miles Wednesday morning - outside, cold, icy sidewalks and snow. Right leg seems to be handling added distance fairly well.



January 1st and the scheduled training is soon to arrive. I have a 37 week program that I follow - it has a daily schedule, alternating between swimming, cycling, running and core conditioning/weights. I've been thinking lately about defining why I'm doing all this again? I enjoy it? Even that statement has to end in a question. If I had nothing but time on my hands I would enjoy it much more. The time committment to Ironman carries with it a considerable amount of guilt - time away from family.

I ran a fast lap at Foster this morning, and ran on Christmas day. Not many miles, just maintaining.
