no inspiration for a title today dudes.
went to the "informational" meeting on the training group and signed up. of the 75 people, 80% are run/walkers. the upside is that i'll get more one on one attention from the one coach dedicated to the runners. the downside is that the training schedule is like ridiculously easy (so i say now) they have threatened tuesday speed workouts, so i might change my mind once those start. once i get back into the swing of things, i might just start tacking on some miles on the saturday "long run" workouts to get me ready for the 10k in april. and once i'm done with the group, i'll be back up in mileage to run with the normal free running groups that also meet on saturdays, until i have to buck up for CIM training! but for now, our first group workout is saturday where we have to walk a mile (snooooze). tomorrow i'm going to try to run two.
went to my swim lesson tonight. last week i missed it because i went home in between work and class and totally fell asleep. HA! luckily they didn't make me pay for that lesson. we did a lot of pulling today to get me to keep my damned hips up. my stroke is kicking ass and my kick is great when i'm kicking with the board. but putting the two together and down go my hips. we also spent some time treading water which got my arms very sore...though that's a good thing. getting an upper body workout without having to lift a weight is ideal.
ok peeps, sorry for the boring post. the good news is that spring is in the air...at least here!

Jealous! The only thing in the air here is snowflakes...
I'm with allison, only snow and freezing rain in this neck. Ugggghhh I hate you :P LOL JK!
Great to hear you're sticking with swimming. I've been away from the blogosphere, so it's refreshing to see some people are still on the right track. Unlike me.
So, any triathlons in your future?
About the hair: I always had short, short hair until five years ago when I started growing it loooooong. So, it wasn't too strange to have it chopped. I am, however, thinking of growing it back. It's not at all bad short, but perhaps I can enjoy the long and donate again.
I'm glad you're gonna do the running group. I found a free on for Thursdays. . . but it idepends on teh weather. the first store i caleld has about 12 runners, I thought "cool", average pave 7-8:30 min/mile.
Uhm, OK, so not for me ....apparently mostly training for BOston----very hilly runs too.
So i'm doing a Thursday evening group run 3 or 6, your choice.
I"m thinking about swimming, but I sink
group thing sounding great and especially spring air! :)
You're so the bad ass of the running group. Soak it up!
"Ya I'm going to go run another 2 or 3 miles after this"
*collective gasp of admiration*
