Nice Stroke
Tuesday - Run Speedwork Day - One mile super easy, increase treadmill speed by 2 clicks every half mile, one mile super easy. 4 miles total. Got up and did my run this morning, though, I would have rather not. :) I got back from the pool about 8:15 last night and it felt like I hadn't really slept yet. I slept pretty well for once, but bed at 10 -- hubby's alarm at 4 -- mine at 5 -- you know how it goes! Last night's swim was largely drill and technique work. I take my 12yo daughter and she kicks like crazy with the kick board and makes me try to keep up! A family was swimming in the lane next to us, so of course I started talking to the Mom. She had a beautiful stroke and I figured she was a life long swimmer. She offered to look at me swim and offered some valuable advice on drills and dry land exercises to help improve my stroke. She also said I had a "pretty nice stroke". Boy oh boy did that bolster my self confidence! Photo from Clifbar.com
