May Round Up

 May ... ended up being pretty good, all things considered. In some ways. It was back to the "standard numbers" I'd hoped for in the April recap post ...

Swimming: 12200m (7.58 mi)
Cycling: 114.32 mi
Running: 70.83 mi
Lifting: 31 sessions (6:06)
Other: one day skiing (1:00), two walks (5:30)

Still not swimming as much as I'd like to be (or should be), but back up over 10K for the month makes me happy.

The bike ... it's a stop and start thing. I'm getting there. I think.

Running ... well damn. I essentially tripled my run mileage from last month. I guess that's what I do when I'm actually consistent with something. 

I went back to a daily lift and I think it did me a lot of good. I also mostly quit half-assing it (and am adding a few extra things that I'm doing each day).

The other maybe wasn't as much as I'd like, but it was nice to actually get in a day of skiing in May (even if it was just a few runs) and all that walking was done over two days in Boston at the end of the month.

For June, I really would like both the swimming and cycling numbers to go up. Which might be a touch interesting as my gym (and therefore my pool) is closed for five days for repainting and my bike is making weird sounds and may need to go into the shop. But we'll see what I can do regardless. I also hope to get hiking again soon. And maybe throw myself into a random race. We'll see.
