I managed to get around the block today, but my legs were just totally dead. I then tried the pool with not much more luck. But I'm ok. I just need to recover a little. At the pool, even though I didn't do much I did fool around a little to test my fitness. I can swim an entire length(25 metres) without taking a breath, in about 21-22 seconds. It's that kind of fitness that also allows me to talk so much!
But not much talking today either. I have no brilliance to impart. Just maybe a thought about long term vs short term gratification. I'm finding that one of the most difficult challenges to deal with. The idea that I am working so hard for something that is still 10 months away. But I guess I knew that going in eh? That's why I started this blog in the first place.
Besides....some things are worth waiting for. Here's my evidence.
Tomorrow, I will probably try to run some hills, if my legs feel a little better, and then on Monday try a shorter but intense bike ride. On Monday afternoon I leave for Mexico for the week so lots of time to rest then. I'm going to a city I've never been before,(San Luis Potosi) so hopefully I will be able to find a place to run.
I wish to dedicate day 45 to my brother in law Mark....who I think of as my own little brother.

Talk to you tomorrow.
