Surf-fitness

Attended my surf fitness class - it was hard. I'm still working on getting my confidence up underwater, but that's not really a fitness thing, that's a 'in my head' thing.
I'd like to get my swimming speed up a bit I think - I can't work out how people manange the warm up laps so fast (on thinking I think it's because they don't take a breather). 
I did have some thoughts last night about the different trainer styles that suit me. I think my swimming teacher is a bit too chilled - I like a bit more feedback/being pushed but in a constructive way rather than what currently happens which is being asked to do things I don't know how to do (mainly at the moment it's doing forward/backward rolls in water - I simply carry on treading water). I did have a chat with the trainer after class (this was hard as I stopped and he gave an impression of 'what do you want', yes I know I'm the weakest in the class, but I pay for it just like everyone else!), I do sympathise with his attempts to push the more able parts of the class without killing me. My suggestion would be a less team game orientated session, but this would possibly be boring for the younger members of the class. Hmmm.
I'm thinking of trying the weights again this afternoon, depending on how the rest of the day works out (I'm waiting for a postman)

Some metres

Swam 6-700 metres, lost count totally. Aching a bit now though, so probably did enough.

Truncated morning routine

Well it was a shortened morning sets this morning - left out the upper body stuff as my elbow is still hurting after yesterday, so it was just abs and boxing.
Am off for a swim in a bit (post tea).

I would walk

Umm
Ten miles is the idea tomorrow - as a training walk for the big one in june.
There might also be a swim.
who knows.
S

Yup that hurt - though not as much as I thought it would

Yup, after last night's good effort, tonight was surf-fitness, still aching I got in the pool.
It was not the most epic session I've ever done, but it's an hour spent mostly out of breath, which is fine.
I did duck out of one of the games - a game of catch whilst treading water, not through exhaustion, but because the people in my team persisted in chucking the ball at me when I couldn't make eye contact with them (they were too far away without my glasses) to tell they were throwing it to me, despite being asked politely by me and then asked by the coach. I wandered off to tread water by myself since having things lobbed at me by idiots is not what I paid my three quid for.
That being said I did feel that my core stability as demonstrated by my ability to stay on a bodyboard while paddling along the pool has come along immensely in the two weeks I've had out - which is good.
More Eddie Izzard watched tonight -was awesome.
Hoping to be up and atomed tomorrow for a good cycle ride.

Sunday night

Weekend - no surf - no particular training done. Meh.
Another goal - swim a mile (that's 32 lengths of the 50m pool) - so far I can do about half of that, so we're getting there.
