3000 more yards and July #'s

I did my 2nd 3000 yarder of the week tonight. I hit 2000 yards and literally almost threw in the towel. So I did an easy 100 yarder to get my head back in gear. I can't fall back into my old habits of "this is good enough" in the pool. I have a 2 mile swim next weekend!

I did:
500
5 x 100 (ranged from 1:38 to 1:35)
500
200
200
100 (this is the one that got my head back in gear)
400
300
200
100
-----------------------------------------
So for July, I did:

Pool: 25950 yards
Bike: 286.22 miles
Run: 61.18 miles

These have been pretty consistent numbers for the past 3 months. I can always bike and run more, but I think the yardage in the pool is pretty good. I know I can do more, just don't have the will power or motivation to. It didn't feel like I ran 61 miles. Felt more like 40. I haven't had a really good long run since July 5th when I belted out an awesome 9 miles in 1:15:00 flat. I need to have another one of those!
