Wednesday workout

So I have a mile run for time planned.
Then I am going to they local pool, they have an open masters swim tonight and it's only $5.00 to participate.
I hope to get a few of these in before the next triathlon.
I also have my Christmas wetsuit (haven't worn it yet)  I want to get in some instruction and see what it feels like to swim in this.  All I have used before was a little shorty wetsuit, so this should feel different.

I'm a little self conscious about wearing the wetsuit to the pool.  I don't want to look like a dork, but I feel like I need to get in some swim time with it.  I guess It's too late to worry about looking like a dork, I've been perfecting that for the last 41 years.

I just started jogging and today was my 4th attempt, i was able to jog 1.5 miles at a pace of around 12 or 13 minutes.  Before the run i did weights (back, bi, shoulders) for 40 minutes and 21 minutes on the stairmaster.  After the run i swam for around 1,400 yards.  It was a good day.  My goal is to run my first 5K in July with my father.  After that... who knows, maybe i'll look into tri's.

I'm new at the whole exercise thing.  I am trying to make it a daily habit and hopefully and addiction.  I hope I can trade it in for another.  So I managed to do 10 min this morning without stopping on the eliptical.  I know only 10 min but it was good for me.  I am gonna try and do another 10-12 tonight. 

10 minutes is a lifetime more than 0 minutes.  Keep it up.  Before you know it you will be doing multiple workout and counting your time in hours and miles not minutes.

I scheduled a rest day for me.  With the increased mileage, my IT band is starting to act up again, so I need to baby it a bit.
