NOTES:

These 2 weeks were a LOT of fun. The 4 of us (wife & kids) went to the beautiful state of Minnesota. We spent the first 2 days cruising around Minneapolis/St Paul area. Went to the Zoo, parks, Mall of America, Sea Life, St Anthony falls, and more... Lots of walking.  NO TRAINING.

The rest of the time was spent with friends and family in DL where I did some training. During one of my swims, I even got to see my name on the wall for holding the school record on the 100 fly (1997). I also took 2 spinning classes, did a 10 mile run around the lake, and did some strength training. We had a GREAT time with all family and friends !  I also did paddle boarding for the first time... Fun, but fell too many times trying to catch Michelle.

SWIM:

Did 2 swims prior to a spin class. Stroke felt OK. A bit harder to motivate myself to push hard during vacation.

BIKE:

Took 2 spinning classes. They similuted lots of climbing so it was a good session. A bit short, but again, I didn't want to do extra

RUN:

10 mile run = What a great day it was. I was up and it was light out. Got my shoes and was getting ready. Then I found out it was only 5:15am!!! WOW.  Not used to that.  I then took my time, made some coffee, checked the  weather, etc.  Running around the lake took me thru my old High School and other familiar places from those times. I loved that run.

Strength:

After swimming and spinning I did 5 minutes EMOM of Deadlift, Bench Press, and some DB snatches.
