Nice Weather for Ducks?

Morning was taken up with visit to the specialist doctor who agreed to cease regular visits each week! I am going really well these days - can it last?

Went for a swim in the afternoon down at CISAC - it was quite pleasant now that school holidays are over ~ although it was lunchtime I had a lane to myself for about half of the time, and only one other for the rest.

Swam for just over an hour to make it a round 2.5k - although when checking my laps at home found this was 2.6k. Was surprised to see the dark skies outside, and rode home in a thunderstorm, arriving back quite soaked.

A bit disorganised in preparing for the Cross Country tonight - Bob was going, but heading straight off to swim squad afterwards, so I cycled down to the Boathouse. Not enough time to register, change and warm up, so I found the first part of the run pretty hard going, my legs were dead. They warmed up after 2k though and I picked up my pace and began overtaking people. Unfortunately, my lack of preparation including missing a trip to the loo, so I had to make a detour to public conveniences and lost about a minute and a half. Felt good though, finishing in under 5 minute pace adjusted time, 25:40 officially.

A storm coming home made the going wet and dark, and I needed to pull over and put on arm warmers quite early. A hot bath was very welcome tonight!
