Part of the whole reinvention thing was to schedule in rest weeks, but while things are going well you always think you can do another week or squeeze in another race. Although it sucks today, it's probably a good thing (?) Every 9th week is now going to be a down week

Swimming been a big feature of the week which has reminded me that I ought to try and add that to my training plan when I get back Anyhow. A slow move to re-invention is naturally happening after pretty much a huge "fail" year! I turned 50 in July and the social whirl and noticeable affects of hormone time certainly have helped me come to a point of achievable small changes How's everyone else?
