5:00 am, dark, pouring rain. Cold

"My rest day is over". I kept saying this to myself laying in bed this morning, hitting snooze, listening to the rain, guessing the outside temperature, vacillating between more sleep or exercise.

"My rest day is over". Apparently you need to repeat that statement for a full thirty minutes. I rolled out at 5:30, dressed, put on my Gore-Tex jacket and trudged outside to the car. Swimming day. At least I wasn't preparing to run.

I swam a nice IM workout. My butterfly felt fairly strong this morning. Main set was 100 swim /kick/drill of each stroke. Finished with 25's all out, no breath. 2,500 yards total

Back home again before anyone was even out of bed. Got Spongebob on the tube, let the dog out in the rain, got the clothes ready for school, then raced off to work.
