Feeling much better - took 5 days off and headed back to the gym on Monday.  Since I was scheduled to start my triathlon training plan last week and I'm still in the lower numbers I felt that I could just pick up this week and not really work about last week.  Monday's workout wasn't bad, Wednesday was a bit rough but by Thursday I was good to go.

We took a 20 mile bike ride yesterday and have found a really nice paved trail, Leon Creek Greenway.  We rode our mountain bikes but I will definitely be spending some time on this trail with my road bike and its close to my office so I can get a ride in after work some nights.

My swimming is going well but I think I might be allergic to chlorine.  The Lifetime Fitness I go to has a leisure pool and a lap pool.  The lap pool can be packed in the morning so I often have to swim in the shorter leisure pool. There is a big difference in the level of chlorine that are in these pools.  Today it took me 100 yds to get comfortable because my nose was burning like crazy.  I don't know if that is an allergic reaction or just a normal reaction to the chlorine.  Rob mentioned possibly using a nose plug but I have tried that in the past and it just didn't work.  I'll see if I can find it and possibly give it another try.

I'm 1.5 lbs away from my goal weight!!
