<p>Morning </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Nice belated b-day presented from my work- forced 12hr shift.  Just a mile on the schedule today anyhow. I'll knock it out on the TM when I get home this afternoon. </p>

<p><strong>BBS</strong> - happy belated birthday to you!  Streak on!</p>
<p><strong>Jebba</strong> - too funny about the new judge... wait until he starts running when you do and challenging you in a race (rather than the courtroom)...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Managed to haul myself out of bed this morning.  Drove to the gym.  Bank said 1F.  Ran 8.40 miles on the TM.  Came home.  Bank said 3F.  Booked a flight back to Phoenix.</p>

<p>Asics--sill boy!  That would have been a stupid easy "more miles than degrees" run.  btw I missed your race report.  My sister posted a 5:29.  Wondering what kind of day it was?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Waiting for it to warm up a bit and roads to clear before driving over to the gym for a dip in the fishbowl.</p>

<p>RA - LOL I feel the same way about Fort Lauderdale right now.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I bagged the wet work again this morning and slept in. Hopefully that will knock out this fatigue I have been feeling all week. It seems I never really recovered from the weekend activities followed by the Tuesday trip home. Feeling a little better today though so maybe I am pulling out of it.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Not sure what I am doing today on my last non-working work day. Wondering if maybe I can hit the rec center where the swim group trains...not sure if I have the same status as a regular member of the gym...at least I could make up some of the missed swim on my own. If not that maybe just an easy  neighborhood run.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>BBS - some b'day present from the man. Glad you still got the run in.</p>

<p>Race reports. We still do those? I'm behind by about 3 races now. Something to do with my life getting turned upside down professionally a few months back...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Oh well, no swim for me this afternoon. My card's only good for the "swim team" session in the early morning. Think I will do an indoor brick instead. </p>

<p>I totally NAILED my swim workout.  Well sorta.  This was supposed to be two sets of 100x 5's.  But, I got in there and was pissed off and figured I'd just hammer out a 2000 steady time trial.  All that speed work is paying off!  There were a few times I did lose focus but hot diggity dog if I'm not back to what I was posting two years ago.  2000m in 48:31.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>On the way out they stopped me at the front desk.  Seems my membership has expired.  They can offer me a super special on three years--only $800.  Not bad, except...  We just payed son1's tuition.  Son1 bought a car.  Hubby was supposed to arrange a loan but we ended up paying cash.  And we have to plunk down $4000 to possibly prevent a legal issue.  So I may not be able to renew at all.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As far as race reports, nah, I don't post a full report any more.  I race too stinkin' much.  But I like to hear how people did in their races!</p>

<p>Indoor brick done earlier. 30 minutes on the trainer followed by 4 miles on the treadmill. On the run I did a mile warmup, then for the next 2 I did 8x200 at increasing speed.Mile cooldown to finish up.  I guess you could call it a light interval workout. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>20k tomorrow looks unlikely for me with some nasty weather in the forecast overnight and into the morning. No big deal, it was just a club race so it didn't cost me anything to sign up. All the better, I can do some good track racing on Sunday.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hope you find a way to get that pool membership sorted out 4bm...that would surely be a waste of swim talent.</p>
