Rain, Rain Go Away

Last night I went to Capitol Athletic Club to try out their Masters program, again. And, again, no one showed up. So I ended up swimming 2500y, relatively easy, with some drill work, some kicking and pulling and some IMs to mix it up.

I'm not good at swimming by myself, I go crazy and get slow and am positive that I'm messing up my stroke. When I swim with a team or other people, I feel like I get more out of it.

So, since the Masters program at Capitol seems to be mostly me swimming by myself, I'm probably going to keep going to Natomas Racquet Club. They have a good swim program and the coach was helping me with my technique and I definitely was getting faster. It's just that it's a 30 minute bike ride away and I hate having to bike all the way there in the rain. Especially if I just want to swim for 30 minutes.

This morning I thought it would be raining hard, so I did 1:20 on my trainer. I also hate the trainer. Again, by myself, nothing to look at, I go crazy. But this wasn't too bad. I did drills, one-leg, cadence, jumps and I watched When Harry Met Sally. funny movie.

Of course, I didn't get out of bed til too late, so then it was 11:15 by the time I finished push-ups and sit-ups and stretched after. So I had to rush to get to the Governor's Office by noon.

Now I'm here and there's nothing to do.

Going to leave in about an hour and go swim by myself again at Capitol and maybe do some weight training work. I'm bad at actually doing weight work, because I get confused by the different machines. And bleh.

And, worse, it's not raining now. But tomorrow, when I was planning on doing a four hour ride and it was suppose to be clear, it's going to rain. When it insists on raining for like 10 days straight, is when I start to hate the fact that I don't drive. I keep having to change clothes everytime I get somewhere.
