Rachel correctly noted in her comment yesterday that I seem to be keeping busy lately. This is very true, between work, renovating, swimming and running I have really had to cut back on other things that require time - such as blogging. All of the hectic of the last month or two is really starting to wear me down, I noticed this towards the end of my longer run on Sunday afternoon (21 km) and my run last night (13 km). I tried to compensate by going to bed early the last night, but at 1:30 a.m. I woke up and couldn't sleep for a long time, my head was full of project deadlines and renovation ideas. Today I am feeling ragged.
On the positive side my swimming really seems to be improving, albeit I am a long way off from being triathlon fit. After weeks of seemingly no progress, a little progress goes far to build up my esteem in the swimming department. I have two more classes left in my crawl swimming course, tonight and next Tuesday. When the class is finished I plan on continuing to swim twice a week and also start up my Crossfit and weight training.
I am continuing to run the majority of my 3-4 runs per week with friends, particularly with RB. With all the wet and cold days we have been having it continues to warm by heart when I can chat away the miles with a good buddy.
We are finally using our new kitchen, I only need to spend a couple hours working on the finishing trim around the cabinets. I will post a picture or two when I'm done.
