A Swim and More Stretching
So, after my post about stretching at work I totally went all out today and pretty much didn't care about what the others thought. I stretched everything I could all day long, and though I may not be as limber as I would like to be I feel like this can only end goodly. (As opposed to badly.)
I went for another swim as well. I did 1200m freestyle in 18 minutes and that was all I could handle. Swimming has become pretty boring these days, which is why I made the switch to pool running a couple of weeks ago. But given how my legs are feeling, and the fact that Around the Bay is a week and a half away I didn't want to tax my legs any more than necessary. I will return to pool running in April to be sure.
Tonight we entertained a friend of Malcolm's for a "movie night", with her Mom over for dinner and such so I didn't manage any strength stuff. The night is young, however, and I might get to it yet. There's a third of a bottle of wine left on the table however...

Hope it starts to feel better soon.
hmmmmm, "her" Mom, Malcolm has a lady friend???
Oh and do tell, what happend to the third bottle of wine?
No, I'm not running the Around the Bay this year, too many of the group I lead were not going, so I'm happily running at home.
Have a GREAT time and don't forget to save up for the "HILL".

you are definitely playing it smart and listening to your body - good job!! it will thank you come race day!
Good job with the stretching. Swimming is good for cardio work, but nothing will make you a better runner except running.
Great job on the stretching. So what was the movie?
Xenia: Strawberry Shortcake. My older son was NOT impressed. And now Malcolm would like us to refer to him as "Nut Pupcake". I don't know where the Nut came from, but he pretty much is one so the fit is there!
Good luck on your around the bay race.
