Today was another good day. I had minimal pain all day and a great swim this morning. I had 1800 yards on my plan, but I finished faster than usual so I did an extra 200 yards with the kickboard along with my pool exercises. I still have a long way to go to feel like I'm ready for Lake Placid but the only reason I had to stop swimming this morning is because I ran out of time. I should have some more time in the mornings next week because I won't have to be at school for post-planning until 8am. I'm also really looking forward to having the summer off this year to really focus on training and two-a-day workouts. I'll be logging some much longer rides as well.
Dr. Karyn is really happy with my progress and came back from her conference with a couple new exercises and techniques to try on me. She also helped me with my core work by tweaking my position on the floor to better isolate the core. I did a core workout when I got home and the difference was pretty amazing. I actually had to rest midway through a couple of my sets.
I will do another swim tomorrow morning and I will try to work in a walk during planning. There is a county wide middle school coaches banquet that I am going to tomorrow evening so I will need to make sure that I get in whatever I can during the day.
Here's the core workout for today:
Core - 13x25
