300 Miles

Hit the 300 miles mark for 2014 this morning.  I had a 10,000 yard workout all written up on my nightstand, but my alarm wasn't set properly and I missed it.  Cathi woke me up at 6am and I was quite bugged.  So I ended up saving this workout for Saturday morning, and did a shortened pyramid set at Northwest which was the only consolation of getting in a late swim.  Started at 0711:

100 free easy
200 IM
300 - 4 x 75's drill/back/free no rest
400 kick with fins
500 pull Large paddles, go STRONG!
600 - 3 x 200's odd IM, even free
500 pull (agility paddles with ankle strap)
400 kick with fins
300 free straight focus on good exhale and EVF
200 IM
100 cooldown

3,600 yards total in 1:01

I got up at 0400 yesterday planning to swim, but my body was quite sore and I'm ahead of the game on the 10 x 10K's so I went to work super early.  Cathi and I went car shopping at lunch and bought a 2012 Honda Odyssey.  Cathi's parents went on a mission and gave us their 2012 Infiniti FX35.  That thing was way too nice and impractical for our family so we traded it in for a new van and still got a good sized check in change.    I have the most generous in-laws I could ever imagine!  Feeling blessed.
