Week 3 Summary

Hi everyone,
I made some significant progress in swimming this week. I can finally breathe on both sides. I can also do several back-to-back 50M swims (though I'm supposed to be doing 100's at this point). I have signed up for a swim lesson on Tuesday, so hopefully that will help me even further. I didn't get in as many swims as I wanted this week - I'll try to make it up in Week 4.
Biking is going pretty well, after my grueling day on Wednesday, I felt well prepared for the team bike ride in Novato on Sunday. I decided to go on the "pro" ride which was a 21.5 mile climb up "Big Rock" and back. The ride took us right near Skywalker Ranch, and reminded me how much I love my bike.
Running is going well, though rather uneventful - I did a 6 mile run in 55 minutes on Saturday. I'm starting to notice some general health changes, I weigh a few pounds less, but I have noticibly less fat. My resting heart rate has come down from 71 to 62 or so.
