Cross training today, which meant swim class. I was pretty draggy this morning after last nights evening out, but I put on my Granny swimsuit and went anyway. Once I got in the pool I felt really good. I like the Saturday swim class b/c it's at the same time as the Master Swim class my husband attends for his triathlon training. So while I'm doing my workout I usually get to also watch him swim. I really enjoy watching how fast the Master swimmers can go.
Today we did lunges, stretching, crunches, squats, running and swimming. It was a nice easy workout, which is exactly what I needed after training a bit harder this week. I still like the deep water class best, but since it's only on weekday mornings it's not an option during the school year. I did find out that Mary teaches the Tues/Thurs night class, and rumor has it she's the better teacher. She's been my favorite instructor so far because she seems to work us harder than the others, hopefully I'll be able to work in one of those nights for cross training, and run long on Saturdays.
Oddly enough the running in the pool was the hardest part for me today. I noticed some tenderness in my right knee when we were doing squats and then again when we ran. This week I'll need to make sure I pay attention to how that knee feels out on the road. Maybe it's tender because I ran a little faster this week. Tomorrow is a rest day, and I plan to get plenty of it.
