I have a cold, grumble, grumble

It was inevitable because both of the children have had one, so despite my valiant attempts to keep away from them I have it. And as always I trained well on the bike Thursday and well running and swimming Friday, Saturday my day off I started feeling yuck, Sunday it was a struggle and today I was a mucus highway.

The fight goes on!

Weekly training Mon 2 - Sun 8 June & I got poohed on

Starting to get back into this week. Punctured on the stationary trainer on Sunday after only 10 min(over inflated the tyre) I got off changed it and got on with the session would have beed easy to abandon it.

Very busy business wise juggling 2 of the larger jobs too date sometimes I think I must be mad learning on the job but if I had to pay to study I probably wouldn't have got sp far or been able to afford the cots. Learning on the job I get paid but it can be stressful at times. What I've learned this time is that for a larger ecommerce website I need to charge more.

We clipped the chickens wings yesterday and as I was holding the chickens one did a nervous pooh on me much to Emily's delight.

Because I've been on the computer a huge amount recently the arthritis in my right wrist is playing up.

Other things: I am going to try going swimming after I drop Cameron at Kindy, I am going to push my bike to kindy and then ride it to the pool, Swim Gym it is only a couple of kms away and the idea is it will save petrol because it is so much nearer then my other pool.

Thoughts on the way to swimming

I realised last night as I drove to swimming (Friday night swimming is for people with no life) that I have never considered myself a swimmer. I have always thought of myself as a cyclist and a runner. I wonder if it is because I have never really stoppped riding a bike since I learned to ride when I was 13 and because I took up running when I was about 19. I was and still am an ok runner and cyclist but I have never considered myself a good swimmer(because I wasn't).

I am really enjoying fist glove swimming I do believe it is working. I have had fastest run splits in a triathlon a top 3 cycle split but never anywhere near the top in swimming. Because when I asked myself why do I still go swimming I answered I want to have the best swim split in a triathlon, that is the dream.
