Wednesday

Two bootcamp sessions down; six to go.

I do not relish getting up at 5 to make it to the 6AM group workout sessions on time.  But I do relish the feeling after its done.  I feel energized and alive.  I have to remind myself to trust that that feeling will be there when it's over. 

I didn't feel tired or sore after Monday's workout; at least not at first.  Tuesday afternoon I was feeling it in my pecs and lats.  It took a day before the delayed onset of muscle soreness (DOM) took hold.  This morning, it was still lingering and I wasn't sure how I'd pull off the workout.  But I did.  And I fully expect to be sore again tomorrow and Friday.  That's good.  It makes me feel like something's changing.

My right calf tendon is stiff again.  I'm still worried it's the shoes. I hope it's really just my calves and Achilles getting used to the more minimal heel on the K-Ona and that I'll adapt.  If not, then I'll probably be getting back into my old shoes until I can afford to try out the Green Silence shoes...though those are midfoot/forefoot striker shoes as well. 

Not sure if I'm going to do anything more than bootcamp today.  The Laces running group gets together today at 6, so I might head over there.  I'd like to get to know Mike and Clarence more.

No word yet from Will.  I'd really like to start masters swim next Monday.
