Swim

59m 20s
2171.70 meters
02m 44s /100 meters

cut the swim by 600y due to being a slacker with no timeline. Gonna fix that. Mis read the second set and couldn't figure out the math on the pool deck. Nice. DIdn't have time anyhow. I'm retired, I should be able to manage getting in my swim and run work out before the gym closes for 3 hours mid day. Sometimes I miss LFT. Sometimes.

Run

41m 04s
4.00 miles
10m 16s /Mi

had to cut this short as well. Did manage to get all 4 cruise intervals in at least.

Great sleep, terrible prep for the workouts. Fight with the boy, scramble to get to the gym with enough time to do swim/run before noon. Cut both wo's short. I felt like shit going into the high school, and a bit better after the workouts, but still mad at myself for not being able to get my retired ass in gear in the morning. Seriously. I either need a part time job to pressure me to be more organized or just DO IT. Hrumpf.
