Some things are more important than training

I didnt do any training yesterday. I planned on going to the pool late yesterday afternoon. But early afternoon I found out a friend of mine was sent into surgery at the hospital for a minor but needed procedure that if not taken care of could have caused a very serious internal infection with major organs. I decided it was more important to go visit her and spend some time at the hospital instead of training.

So I called another mutual friend and we went over and spent a couple of hours with her in the hospital room just talking and joking about stuff. I remembered what it was like years ago when I was hospitalized and how much it meant to have friends stop by. So I didnt get my swim in,,,big deal. Sometimes there are things more important than swimming biking or running, and I spent an hour on my bike this morning so I really dont think I lost all that much by not swimming yesterday:)
