My eyes are burning
I think it is time to get some new goggles. Lately my eyes have been on fire when i swim. I wear TYR goggles and use TYR anti-fog but the goggle lenses are worn i i think somehow its effecting my eyes. i wont get any water in my eyes and after a swim they are severely bloodshot and itch so bad. i think i will make a trip to lane 4 this weekend to checkout their vast array of goggles.
Its now been 2 weeks since buffalo springs and i am itching to bike and run again. i will wait at least another week to bike and at least 2 more weeks to run. my right knee is still a little tender but i think the IT band is getting better. i noticed i large bump (the bone) on the outside of my right knee whichs is much more prominent than the bone on the outside of my left knee. its as if my right knee has shifted. we will see when i started running again. if i noticed immediate pain it will be time to visit Dr windler again.
Swimming is going good. my goal is the work up to 12-13k weeks in order to make up for my limited running. my times are getting alot better and the longer swim intervals are feeling a lot easier. i am eager to do another half IM soon to get a better sense of my 2k open water time. i am still dissappointed with my 33min swim in lubbock b/c of my poor decision making prior to the swim start.
I am hoping to get 2 more halfs in this season. I would like to do the boerne half on sept 2 and then wrap up the year at the longhorn half in austin a month later. after that i will determine if i want to work on my running more if the knee will let me. i want to run the marathon here early next year and would like to go for 3hr finish. we shall see.
