Of activities when I have had for no reason a nose bleed!!
10 mins into yesterday's swim. I stop for a drink and as I prepare to start again I look down and see a splodge appear on my cossie! So I climb out get some tissue from the life guard and despite my better judgement confirmed that the nose bleed just happened and that it wasn't because someone bashed me! Kids everywhere on floats/rafts and giant inflatable rings making lengths difficult. Roll on 6 when the lanes would appear!!
Being a serious aflete and all that once my nose stopped I carried on! 66 lengths in total bring my Nessie Challenge total to 210!
As always I had the mental battle of "Oh you are weaker now you've had that bleed why not stop!" Followed by "Lying sod you're fine shut up and carry on!". So carry on I did.
Last night despite being the hottest day this year I was cold ... not sure if this is related in anyway but I'm fine today!.
Today I will be using my running kit! Not so much because I want to run fast now but because I want to get back into running.
Swimming is great for CV fitness and I am enjoying it now. It also is great for cross training and if I did consider a tri then I need to swim!! The swimming fitness will help both running and the TW too. Also because I am swimming longer I am getting the endurance in too, you know the "stop!" "No carry on!" thing!!
My aim is to get the legs used to pottering again maybe 2-3 times a week, perhaps with the odd double with swimming. Then after TW to train for running. Still swimming as mentioned above butu increase runs to 3 then 4 sessions.
Will see what Spans says!!!
