For the first time in a month, my shoulders did not absolutely kill when I used them for something, in this case moving garbage cans. This week, in fact, has felt better physically. I have been able to get on the bike 3 times and get back to Master's Swimming. That went a heck of a lot better than I thought it would have. I managed to stay in my regular lane and even lead  a solid portion of the sets. Definitely lost the feel for the water over the summer. But I think that'll come back pretty quickly. As I said, it could have been a lot worse. And with the pain I have been dealing with, this was actually ... fun.



I also finally received a new set of shifters for my race bike so I began setting that up. I stipped a wire running it through the housing. Painin the ass, because I was trying like hell to be careful with the old wire to reuse it. Oh, well.  Have to get at least one new one. I haven't ridden that bike all year. It's been in dry-dock since last September. Typically I go to my road set-up in the off-season any how, but the off-season lasted all summer this year. Now I have to figure out the running stuff again. The swim and bike feel pretty good for now....



More soon,
