and the swimming begins

Week 2 starts the next phase of my workouts. Went out and purchased my goggles and jammer pants for swimming, then headed to the gym to get my workout on.

Swam 20 laps of the pool approx a 1/4 mile. It felt great being in the pool but man did my breathing suck. I need some serious work getting the air regulated. Looking forward to swimming the whole thing without stopping. Seems like swimming a mile is a ways off. Thank gawd I don't have a race this month.

After the swim I grabbed a quick 5 minute steam, really cleared the head up. Then knocked out a 3.1 mile run on the treadmill for a time of 30:45. Pretty good and kept the heart rate below 171.
