Week 3 and still at it

Week 3 of training
Last weeks plan was the following:

Day:             Plan                        Actual                   Comments
Monday:      50 Minute Run       50 minutes            4.6 miles 10:53 pace
Tuesday:      Track 2.0                Track 2.0              3 miles 2x400, 2x800, 2x400
Wednesday: Cross Train             swim, group training
Thursday:    50 Minute Run       50 min                   4.7 miles 11:02
Friday:         40 Minute Run       55 min stretch trainer/60  min private swim
Saturday:    cross train               10 miles                 11:35 pace (slight lower back/glute pain)
Sunday:       10 miles                 2.3 miles                13:00 pace                                  

Overall, I rearranged my long run and Friday run due to my travel schedule.   Overall runs have felt okay, but still dealing with my right leg pain (hamstring/glute/back).  More stretching and strengthening will help.  Thursdays run was great.  I ran with South Bay Running Club, and had great company with Briana.

I had a private swim lesson with Bryan.  He gave me lots of good pointer to work on my swim.   The 4 key take aways from the lesson are:
1. keep my head up (I tend to pull it down)
2. Keep my neck stiff (think of wearing a neck brace)
3. Bend arm early (when pulling out of the water, and also after entering the water)
4. Push all the way through with a straight wrist.
