When is the last time you woke up at 6am on a Saturday? Well, I did this two days ago and hauled myself and my new bike (ooooh) to 72nd St and Riverside Drive by 7:15. It was TNT's first Bike+Run (BRick) session (side note, would BRun or Rike have made more sense?) and I was not going to miss it after 2 weeks of semi-haitus. Though I admit I woke up at 6:35 because my alarm didn't sound and had to take the subway up....
The BRick consisted of a 1 mi run (a good warm up), a 1 hour bike which was about 15 miles for me (I ate some bugs and swerved all over the place), followed by a 2 mi run (the word catatonic comes to mind). It felt like someone put wooden stilts in my legs and forced me to run, every joint was stiff and every step was weighted down. That being said, I HAD FUN! I was just very happy to have made it this far so far- my first bike followed by a run ever.
Sunday was a day of rest (aka shopping, eating and family time).
Yesterday, Jodie, Eran, Catherine, Sarah S. and I did our weekly Monday Swim session. We did our first 30 minute continuous swim! I swam 1100m, I think. It's a pool with eight lanes, I really have no excuse to lose track. I remember very clearly our first swim (I think I blogged about it) - I was exhausted after four laps (100 m).
It was rewarding : )
Thank you Jin, for your generous donation! I cannot wait to catch REVOLVER when it's all said and done. And, to catch you soon for a get together.
