The cold is almost gone, just have a stupid cough. My eye is nearly healed from the freak accident with the soap dispenser. It's been another week of very little training. All I have done is my two sessions with Shawna. I was really disappointed with my leg session. She wanted me to do ten jumps onto the 24 inch step. My first jump I landed really off balance and immediately bounced off the step to my right. My second jump barely cleared the step. I just had no power. I did the rest of the set and the other two rounds on the 18 inch step. I guess I really shouldn't be surprised - I lost 3 pounds in 5 days and I'm just starting to get my appetite back. And I was sleeping like a cat - 21 hours a day. Only a slight exaggeration.
I haven't signed up for a race yet. At this point, I'm not sure I'll race at all this summer. I'm okay with that. The chiro and massage therapist have been doing a lot of work on loosening up my shoulders and upper back. I haven't been in the pool in a while. The swim has always been good, I wonder if it will be even better. I've got lots of running drills to do when I can breath without coughing.
