Swim

mmmm, that was nice!

Not sure what the deal is, but I am still really fatigued. Leg feeling a little bit better, but still sore. (still have no idea what caused it)

Might head out to the lake for a swim, while the water temp is still reasonable.

UPDATE awesome evening swim. With warm weather, water has actually warmed up. Very nice. Just relaxed and enjoyed it as I know cool temps will be here soon enough. Just floated on my back for a five minutes afterwards and looked up at the dusk sky. Did wonders for me.

yeah, that's not really good.

Still feeling beat down and very sore inner thigh (from what I don't know) Geez, with as crappy as I feel, I might as well just done the race. Thinking I will jump on the bike tonight.

UPDATE: Leg still sore and seems to be affecting my power a bit. Super.

Monday - September 14

Oh man am I tired. As has become the annual tradition, I will not be signing up for IMMOO next year. I think my daughter's spanish teacher (who was doing the race) said it best when I saw her on the run "whatever you do, don't sign up, because this sucks!" I'm thinking a lot of the athletes were saying that, as it was pretty miserable (read hot) day for them. I actually had a great time. Really enjoyed my volunteer stints. Saw almost everybody multiple times. I even managed to see Tammy, Josh and Rich finish. Now I want to go back to sleep.

Oh yeah, I am pretty much thinking today is a rest day.
