April 22nd - Trying to fit it all in

I will be happy when track season is over.  Just two more weeks.  It's tough to get all my workouts an PT work in when I get home from meets so late.

This morning's swim was another pretty good one, although I had a headache when I got out of the pool and I felt a bit more winded than usual.  I have switched my breathing pattern and I am still trying to get used to it so that may have contributed.  I did another 1200 yards this morning, which is only 1/4th of the distance I will need to cover in Lake Placid.  I will be asking Dr. Karyn if I can start to increase my yardage and work on some swim speed.

Because of the meet, I knew that I wouldn't be able to walk or ride after school so I got in an hour walk at school.  I covered another 4.5 miles.  My knee is feeling really good this evening after my PT work, but it was a little uncomfortable during the day today.  I have noticed that the cramping in my upper calf is back, but that may be from sitting a lot today. 

I also did some core work today:
