Went on a power walk in the morning.  Nice to be active.  I think it was 50 min.

Played volleyball for an hour.  It was fun.  Lifted in the morning.

Took the day off and went biking in the morning.  Went on a lovely 90 min ride.  No hurry, just enjoying the few last warm days of fall.

Rain, Rain Rain, so no running.  Worried about my knee so I swam in the afternoon.  Talked to someone who showed my how to do flip turns so I spent the day doing flip turn drills.  Swam an hour.

Lifted a bit in the morning.  My knee had been hurting over the weekend so I am in full mode to take care of the knee.  I have nothing going on right now so it will be strengthening, icing and stretching.  I might have to get my sorry self off to the pool more for low impact workout.

I had Nate over and he massaged my quads, calfs, and hamis.

Swam after a late start.  Did a timed, easy 800 in 16:20 or so.  I am working on flip turns this fall and winter.  Last year I worked on breathing every 3 strokes and have felt good about how that has turned out.  I have a fear of going upside down in the water on these flip turns.
