5:00 am.  Felt really good today for a recovery run, so I threw in some 0.1 mile strides at the end better known as 161's, (isn't that distance in the Olympics?)  with 0.1 mile jog.  Then with all my extra time due to a short run I went and swam 16 laps in the pool in 18 minutes.  I'm trying to get down to 1 lap/min average cause that would be like running 4 min/mile on a track, right?  

I hope some one else besides me laughs at my track jokes this morning.  Anyway, good run, good swim, glad it's Friday.

Whatever gets the conditioning in.. Are you a competitive swimmer also?

From Rob on Fri, Feb 04, 2011 at 14:50:15 from 206.71.84.68

Steve, No I'm actually a very slow swimmer. I just really enjoy doing it to mix things up.

So that peaked my interest a little bit. Olympic swimmers do 100 M swim in 47 seconds. I just stated that I would like to go 50 meters in 1 minute. I've got a ways to go.
