Goal this week was same as last, swim more, which I am doing :D starting with the MIT pool today as I'm traveling for work. I don't often have access to that sort of facility and it was great. Looking forward to a couple more days of it. I also DIDN'T RUN TODAY and I'm super proud of myself, because I have been trying to run through an injury and I need to cut it out or cut it down. (Orthopedist is ok with some running FYI, but I've been doing too much).
Other goal is to keep up the self-care.
I did run less -- took 3 days in a row of just swim. Still need to run less...
conference went well and I did a good job of self-care. The whole thing wasn't as anxiety-provoking as I thought it would be. I had a great time swimming at MIT in the mornings, and the endorphins certainly helped me deal with people all day. (I love giving talks - it's the socializing part I only partially enjoy).
ran 4x, 28.9 miles total
swam 6x, 16225 yds
Goals for this week:
1. Healthy coping mechanisms
2. Minimize running (trying to heal an injury)
3. Swim lots (off to a good start with 375 yds this morning and 2025 yds at lunch)
maybe she's born with it, maybe it's chlorine
If you're injured and need some sympathy, PM me and I'm very happy to write back.
