Tuesday 6-14
Swam the 4300. Went early and started before Masters swim. Did the 3 1000s and it went pretty well. I love Masters swim. It is sometimes more like my social hour than a workout. Did a little 30 minute run afterwards. Felt good except my calves were feeling really tight.
Wed.
Bad weather and crazy day at work. Forgot to do something so was pushed back 3 hours. Boss had a baby and it has been hard to keep it together at the lab without him. Went home and did bike workout on trainer. Got distacted by guy selling magazines at the door. Ran back to work to finish and then ran home. Late night. Running at 930. Feel okay. Calves are a little tight.
Thursday
Swim- went well. I think I have a touch of OCD. Plated 25 sets of plates at work and timed myself. Takes 2 minutes/set. Then had to go swim 25 laps which takes 2 minutes/lap. Pretty mentally beat up after today.
Friday
Achilles is hurting. Took the day off. Am in a total funk today. Tired. Went home and took a 2.5 hour lap.
Sat.
Achilles is still hurting. Swam in pond for an hour. Didn't run. Taking ibuprofen and icing achilles. Still in a funk. Tired.
Sunday
Slept in and feeling a little less in a funk. Did the 3.5 hour ride. Legs tired. Tried to go on run but Achilles still hurt. Iced and took more Ibuprofen.
Monday
Got up and ran in the morning. Achilles hurt for a little bit but went away after I got warmed up. Body felt weird until I got warmed up. Rest of run felt pretty good.
In general I have been in a total funk since Thursday evening or Friday morning. Is this normal? Please tell me I should be feeling great again by the weekend.
Also -nutrition on the run- I think I am going to carry a bottle, I am still deciding. I feel like I always have this burden running. Lots of clothes or food etc. I think I would be happy running without anything. I will probably have some stuff to stick in my pockets though.
