Monday: Swim and Maybe a Bit of the Burn Out

  This morning, I got up and out of the house to a surprisingly cold morning, which is so nice after the hotness that has been our summer.  Now, Ivan and I were relatively on time to swim, and I did get in 3000 meters, BUT I wasn't really into it today.  Workout as follows:

• 300 swim
• 300 pull
• 300 IM
• 8 x 25 fast/slow
• 5 x 25
• 5 x 75
• 400 pull
• 4 x 25
• 3 x 50 descend
• 3 x 50 descend
• 3 x 50 descend
• 4 x 25
• 400 swim
• 100 easy

Anyway, back to my burnout situation.  It seemed that I was just filled with dread when I got to the side of the pool today.  Now, I have done more swimming than usual in the last few months, and it may have something to do with it being cold and overcast for the first time in months before I got into the water.  My feelings for swim will need to be mulled over for the next couple of days.  I do not really feel that I want to forsake the pool and I have to say, based on the nursery situation, it is the easiest workout in my reperatoire.  So, I will probably try swim again on Wednesday and if it still feels like a big bummer, I will reevaluate my workouts.  

I can always devote more time to running and one day, when I get the Micoach situation figured out, I fully plan to work on my pacing.  I could always bike more.
