5K Run/ 1/4 Mile Swim

Ran the reservoir 5K course in 31:35. I ran to the official sign today. I did cross the false finish line in 29:00. The other day I crossed the false finish in 30:51. I put on a sprint at the end and raised my heart rate from 150 to 170.

The course is pretty much uphill for 2 miles and then a much steeper downhill.

I decided today that when I start running I run like an old man. I am also very short of breath initially. At the end I run more like a real runner.

Went to the pool later and got in a quick 1/4 mile swim. Sometimes when I am swimming I feel really slow, and then sometimes my stroke seems to just glide me along.
