Longer run than I have been doing. Felt good running uphill but a bit rough coming home. Burn - 650 kcal.

Moderate Core Workout. Core strength seems better! No back issues in a while. Now have to focus on tight line for swimming.

MTC Swim with Coach JJ. Warm up 200 swim, 200 kick, 200 pull and 200 drill 4 x 50 descending. Main set 4 x 200 on 5:15. 6 x 50 finger drill with fins 600 pull. Cool down 6 x 25 free alt / back/breast/fly 50 easy.
Slow this morning. Erratic in 200's, most about 4:07. Started out okay but 0:05 slower on 2nd and 3rd 50s. Need to work on stiff form in water.

Poor game in general!

Road cycling continues to be dangerous. Just heard of 2 accidents on the weekend, making 3 involving people I know. One woman friend was a Lake Placid pioneer, going back again this year until hit by a driver on Mississauga Road, rumored to be texting while driving. She is in critical condition with a crushed pelvis, head injuries and was in a medically induced coma awaiting surgery. Mississauga Road was our prime LP training route and we often felt surviving the road bike IM training was just luck. Getting to do the race was the bonus!! Yeech! We are all just a long string of fortuitous happenings.

Did not feel fast but worked away on my technique. Fast 25' s were on 0:20 to 0:25.

Though skate but felt good after! We lost tough it was a good game.

Loop route. Wind was tough from the northeast but coming home was fast. Front derailleur would not go down to small chain ring on way home.
