June Round Up

June was a bit disappointing for both of us. But also really, really nice in other ways. Read on ...

Swimming: 13684.91m (8.5 mi)
Cycling: 137.38 mi
Running: 36 mi
Lifting: 30 sessions (6:34)
Other: one hike (3:00), four walks (4:13:16)

The biggest and best part of this month is that swimming number. LOOOOOK AT IT! So while 24 just opened, their pool still isn't. And they closed the nice one anyway. However, the outdoor pool near my parents' house is open and for $7 (non-resident), you can swim for 70 minutes. I am all about that and have been going on average twice a week. CCSP also finally opened for open water, so we got in one of those, too.

I'm also learning that I have probably been swimming in yard pools (as opposed to meter pools), so there's that. Whatever, I'm swimming again in a gorgeous pool and it is GLORIOUS.

Everything else though ... ugh. Cycling has been a struggle again. Have gotten up to Boulder to climb hills a tiny bit, but not nearly as much as I would like. It doesn't help that Tucson is on fire and the Catalina Highway (that is, Mt. Lemmon) is closed so I will not be able to do the original birthday goal. I will still ride; it just won't be an epic ride up a mountain.

Running I have no idea what's going on there. Half those walks (or more) were supposed to be runs. 

Boulder 70.3 was officially cancelled, so the only race still on the schedule is Memphis and we'll see if that actually stays a thing. There have still been virtual races (SMASH has another one coming up on the 4th), but eh. I'm doing a bit better with the Colorado Trail challenge, and my main goal for July is to actually finish that (a month early). We'll see if I do.

I'm also hoping to hike more, so fingers crossed that happens!
