Swam to Brahm's 4th Symphony today as well as the first part of Orf's Carmina Burama. Swam a little over a mile in about 50 minutes. Decent swim although my goggles kept leaking.
I saw a coach there today that I see a lot, Kevin, who coaches kids mostly. He had one 8th grader who was very fast and did a beautiful butterfly. She hasn't reached puberty yet and when she does and gets physically stronger she should be a standout. She's doing about 24 seconds for 50 yards. I think my workout rate is twice that!
This is the beginning of my fourth week of swimming and I will swim twice during the week and then bike for an hour Saturday and Sunday and probably swim as well.

Welcome!
Welcome to my daily blog about me exercising. Sounds exciting? Not. But if you are a FOD (Friend of Doug) or looking for a virtual workout bud, read on. Throughout the year I hope to ride in RAGBRAI as well as in Italy. I have ridden in Italy the past three years and done the RAGBRAI once, as well as the Ride The Rockies 3 times. Also the NY Marathon three times. And I bill myself as the world's slowest triathlete. Truly! Hard to find anyone who trains regularly who is slower than I am! No brag. Just fact. Enjoy.
