Taylor Swims

Teri and I took Taylor swimming a couple nights ago at American Lake. After getting her over her initial trepidation of the water (fear would have been too strong a word), Taylor was all about retrieving a stick about as far out as you wanted to throw it. She's an awesome swimmer and it seems she even likes to retrieve in the water! Go figure!



Sorry, this was shot with Teri's cell phone, so the quality is less than great.

SMFH Workout Last Night

So last night I was feeling somewhat better and Teri and I headed to the Y for a workout. As I had just run the day before, I didn't want to run again, but wanted a good leg workout. So I hit the Stair Machine from Hell. I decided to take it up a notch and set the level at 6 for 30 minutes. My previous high was 5. And so I started climbing. By the time my 30 minutes was up, I had climbed 112 floors and gone 2.35 miles. My average heart rate was in the 150's, so I know I was working good. I joined Teri on the track for a couple of laps and that was that. I don't think I'm going to make it there today, I'm still feeling crappy . . . better, but crappy.
