9th week of the 2011 season


153

I changed plans this week. I started training on Monday, I hadn’t trained the last weekend and I wanted to start training and I knew I would not be able to train on Sunday, or at least it would be extremely hard so to make the most of it I started on Monday.

Since it was a little cold outside, and I did not have the right equipment to go out or to train at home I decided to increases the number of swim sessions.

So on Monday I went to the pool and swam for a very long time. It feels good to be nearly alone the whole time.

On Tuesday I did a similar session as Monday. Long swim and again I was nearly alone.

On Wednesday instead of an endurance session I did a speed session because it was a public holiday on Thursday and the pool would be closed. So since there was not going to be a swim session I decided to go hard on Wednesday and have some free time the next day.

On Friday and went to the pool in the morning, which is not normal for me, I like it better in the afternoon. I went there and just after the warm up a friend got there and I needed to talk to him so I stopped for a while and chat with him. Another long session. I was a little bit afraid because my shoulder was sore at night.

On Saturday I went to pick up my friend, the one I met at the swimming pool on Friday, and he invited a friend to ride with us. It was going to be a fun day. We were going to bike ride to Sant Feliu, swim for about 2km and ride back home. Everything went as scheduled. We rode, swam and rode again. No pain on my shoulder at all. It was a very good day, 17º outside, and 12º in the water. It was a bit hard to get the wetsuit on because we were a bit sweaty but then I swam very well. Even though it was a group session, that was it, no competition, so that’s why the day before I did not taper any bit.

It is funny that I had shoulder pain on and off this past week. There are moments when I feel better and there are other moments where I feel a lot worse. My body is sick. I have also had some pain in the lower right hand side of my back and now, three days later I feel fine. Why isn’t it like this with my heel?

Last Saturday I went out for the second time since my tendinitis. I would like to thank everyone who came for the wonderful time that I had. It was planned in advanced but the honored one just made it because he is gone again. Next time we shall be less naughty during dinner and have more topics to talk about.

This week I kept talking to a friend and we have a bet, which is due at the end of the month. She is helping me a lot and now we tell one each other what the best moment of the day has been. It doesn’t matter if it is a still picture or a 2hours moment, but we have to decide which one is the best.

She also made me realize that even though I thought I was doing something for her it wasn’t enough and I should’ve done a lot more. I wish I had someone to tell me I wasn’t doing enough for her because I would’ve done anything for her.

I made a huge mistake this week, I had a friend in trouble and I just needed to send a message to the right person, I should’ve double checked I was sending it to her. I realized about that one day late, it was too late. I am very sorry for that and even though my past actions don’t help me I wish you forgive me.

Is our ego too big to open up a little bit to the other? Are we afraid to open up to the other to feel the way we have felt?
