GTS SWIM : WEEK 3
I went to the intermediate class tonight. First time swimming in a 50m pool. IT WAS AWESOME. There were less people, so we got more coaching. Total laps swam: 15. I didn’t want to get out of the pool.

I'll Make Lemonade: American TV →
For the past week I’ve been watching American channels. ABC, CBS, CNN, Lifetime, A&E, E!, you name it. What I’ve realized is, the adverts are massively aggressive and wrong in a gazillion ways. Right now as we speak I see a commercial where a woman feeds the possible future boyfriend Brussels sprouts and he pretends to like it, spit it out on the paper towel and run to the kitchen...

After the 30 minute run, headed to Equinox at Time Warner to lift weights. Doubled my shake tonight and made peanut sauce chicken with soba noodles for tomorrow’s lunch. Also made a turkey swiss sandwich and chopped...

GTS - Group Training Session
Our first run got canceled this past Saturday, so tonight was our first group training session (GTS). It was intentionally lax, with some intros and then a 30 mins run. 5 mins out, 5 mins back, 1 minute squats (3x). It felt more like a warm-up, but it was neat to see  massive pack of 200+ people running. I’m sure it annoyed everyone around us though. Came home and fixed myself a big salad:...
