learn to swim, again and again, this time I realized that lifting a bit my head up water won’t go in my nose. 2 hours ride with hills, moraga-skyline-fish ranch and back, In my way back two riders passed my by and the chase began.

JUst came back from a 10k race and I feel pretty good. Finished time is 43.35.64 Legs responded well and a couple of times I felt reaching the acid lactic. I've been able to drop weight in the last 3 weeks and I noticed today. Huge difference!. This is a huge boost for the next days to come. 

I am entering the 8th week of marathon training and it’s time to sit down and evaluate my performance. I was on target until the end of the 3th. week. I noticed harder speed workouts in the track.

Did track workout on Tuesday, run during lunch W, TH & F, ez 6 miles SA and 10 miles Sunday. Overall the first week of taining went well. Saturday supposed to be ez but went a bit fast and pushed at the end. SUnday had my legs tired, first 4 miles were for adjustment then my tempo click in and felt better. I am not putting to much attention in my time yet but I did it in 9 min/pace.

here I am, another year, another dream. Like all new years I start with good wishes. I hope this year is different and to make my wishes come thru. I will try to keep up with my training, blog, work and life...in that order.
