Butt still sinking when weary

Hiya,
I feel so guilty.. I have a confession.. I, Rachelle, DID NOT go to runners club last night. I could barely keep my eyes open during the afternoon, I got snappy with Aaron ( a sure sign of being tired) so decided I would be better off staying home and enjoying an evening together with my little family. Roasted some chicken for dinner and the girls made a salad.. Nooiiccee.

This morning when the alarm went off at 5.15am I honestly wanted to throw the thing out the window, pausing ever so slightly to stomp on it briefly first. But I did just get up, its almost trance like now. Alarm goes off, Rachelle gets up and goes into the bathroom to put on whatever gear corresponds to the activity about to be undertaken.

Swim squad this morning seemed to prepare me for an open water swim. I managed to get swum over, sratched & hit in the head. Ladies its a non competitive event you are training for, take a chill pill. I did feel really good in the water, just getting a little tired on the warm down laps. Here is what we did today;
200mtrs Warm up
4 x 50 Kicks
4 x 50 paddles
4 x 25 Drill dog paddle
4 x 25 Swim
4 x 50 Hard Swim
4 x 50 Easy
100 Cool Down

  1. Fantastic Rach, you are doing all the "stuff" that you need to do.
    The guts and determination this takes is not to be underestimated.

    Love you

    Mum
