Weird day

Exercise Type: Swim

Pretty good morning at work. Went long. Then drove to Corvallis to work with Sarah. We worked on her running: talking about her goals, background, then working on drills, for close to two hours! Then we did maybe a 30min swim lesson. But by then I was exhausted! Or, at least, I couldn't breathe. I did maybe 200yd of swimming, that's it. Ugh.

It was a good hangout with Sarah though. Got to know her a bit better, and some of the health issues she's dealing with. I truly think she's chronically overtrained (she said she does 2-3hrs of aerobic A DAY!), because she's mentioning all these neuro/metabolic/immune stuff going on. That sort of training load is simply unsustainable year after year.

Friday night was nuts. Party at Emily's. Didn't think it would be that big, but it turns out, about 2/3 of the hunt group showed up, my coworker Taylor was there, and a bunch of randos. One very attractive woman showed up. I "played it cool", choosing instead to be super-interactive with the randos, and "rapport building" (e.g. stoking my own positive vibe)...but then she took off by the time I was primed to talk to her!

But, as it turns out, she was "interested" enough to let Taylor know, who texted me soon after she left!

Just as I was dealing with that...another text. CHELSEA. Kidding me?? Unreal.

Fun night.
