You win some you lose some

I am staying ahead of the game with my swim mileage which is fantastic. I am to the point where I feel like I can spend a little time on technique now. I have already gotten my long continuous swim up to 1900m. The original plan was to be a 2000m by the New Year which would require me to add 100m a week and be able to get in 4 x 4k before my taper. Now I am going to be able to sit and absorb the 2km distance for a few weeks before adding to it and use one of the other days to focus on technique.

My biking has been lacking lately. Partly because I still haven't been feeling 100%. It is always hard this time of year to get motivated to ride inside. I am still trying to do at least part of my workout.

Running has been neither good or bad. I am getting in the workouts but my legs don't feel great. I am still getting less and less calf soreness with each run. I will be doing 70min Sunday so I am still moving forward. Haven't seen an improvement in pace times lately. Seem to be stuck between 5:30s and 5:45s. Thats fine for now. I still have lots of time and am sure once my calves have fully adjusted I should see a big improvement.

Time to find some external motivation. Doesn't matter what it is just have to keep the train moving toward the station.
