Swimming 56:22 [1] 1.83 km (30:48 / km)
slept:2.0 weight:198lbs

Back to work today, so fitting a trip to the pool would be more challenging than it has been up to now. Choices are 5:30-8:30 AM, 11-2 PM, or 6-8 PM. Best choice in terms of time management would be somewhere in the 5:30 AM to 7 AM range, but even the wonderful encouragement of my fellow APers couldn't get me out of bed for that today. Ironically, I was wide awake at 4:45 (insomnia has been back in full force) but was adverse to getting up before it was light out.

So, went at lunchtime instead, which adds the travel time from work to the workout, and I will have to work later this afternoon since it was longer than my lunchtime. But, I got it done, and that counts big today.

80 laps in sets of 10 (250 yards). First 60 were FS, then the next 10 alternated 50 yds FS with 50 BS (my BS is about the same steady speed as my FS). The last 10 were 2 FS, 2 BS, 6 FS.

Happily had a lane to myself for the first 30, then some ~13 boy dove in and pretended to be training, mostly when his father was watching, but was more frolicking around and bugging the shit out of me. Was able to switch to the next lane over with 20 or so to go.
