"things like this are a true test to how much you want it"
2 hours pool running!
2 weeks to go!
Calf is improving, and so is my confidence of making the start ready to go.
What did the coach say when I asked if I had to do 2 hours of pool running as per my program?
'Well, bring on the "true test" (and a waterproof iPod case)'.

ahh ... good ol' pool running. excrutiatingly boring, but it does the trick. i've been doing an hour a week for about 4 months ... waterproof ipod is a must. that, or roping a friend into it - it's good for friends recovering from brain surgery or weeks away from giving birth. got any of those friends? cause really, no one's chomping at the bit for that job. "wanna come pool running with me?" never brings out a lot of takers.
I hope you used one of those cute inner tubes, too!
Glad you are on the mend.
oh he just does it, because he gets to use the dive pool where the synchronisd swimmers are. there's no honour for him. trust me. it's all nose plugs and frilly bathing caps for toasty.
dude - pool running will save you. And me, hopefully.
Two hours of pool running! I didn't think Pat was that mean. Be careful in Melbourne - Albert Park Lake might be a tempting diversion.
You must be a bit wrinkly after 2 hours Toasty. I admire your gtitt and determination. Stay positive and focused. All the best.
wow 2 hours! I did 30 minutes and was done. Luckily I am not injured right now.
you know, you can swim in a pool too...
it's the first discipline of...
(wait for it)
TRIATHLON!
2 whole hours, wow!
i think you should put in on said same coach for an alternative group session one friday. would be a hoot having 50 of us doing it at once don't u think?
man that's training the mental side for sure - 2 hours?
do you have pictures? cause I want and demand pictures! I've never been good at water running . . . floats don't stay on me very well.
I have never run in a pool. I have run to the pool, but then I get yelled at by the lifeguard, so I stopped :(
Holy cow! 2 hours of pool running is a true mental test. I thought I was tough for completing an hour.
2 hours of pool running? Hope you had a good iPod playlist! I have never gotten the hang of it myself. Here's hoping you're back on the roads soon.
hello? *tap, tap* Is this thing on??? Where's our Toastie!?!!?!
