July Round Up

Can you guess how July went? Can you? 

I'll tell you - not as well as I was hoping. Oh wait! That's how it always goes!

... I'm over this year. I really am.

Swimming: 8372m (5.2 mi)
Cycling: 106.96 mi
Running: 28.53 mi
Lifting: 28 sessions (5:56)
Other: six hikes (9:42:32), three walks (2:31:28)

Swimming was down again. Partly due to the birthday trip (no swimming there) and partly due to the fabulous pool of fabulousness changing its hours. However, even though my good 24 closed for good (*cries*), the crappy, closer one is back open, so swimming there has started to happen again. I have to get there like 15 minutes before my reservation time to make sure I snag a lane (and go dressed in my swimsuit), but hey. It's been working.

I don't know what happened with the bike. It's been rough. I'll just say that.

Same thing with running. A few of those walks were actually supposed to be runs. Ugh.

While I didn't technically lift every day (still with the TIU daily), I didn't skip a daily - screen-shotted them and doubled up. I did actually have another off day, too, thanks to feeling like crap after our road trip.

Hiking, though, hiking has been great. That's been the main upside to things.

We just got word (literally as I was writing this) that Memphis has been cancelled (big surprise), so we'll see if I race again this year. I'll have a fake tri as part of the Feisty team and a few running races are starting to happen around the metro, but I'm still not sure on whether I actually want to do any of them. We'll see.
