I chose a rest day today, and I will do a second one tomorrow. Rest days are important as they give your muscles a chance to heal and recover. I was feeling a little strained in my last two swims and I think I may have been ready for a rest. Given all the health issues I have had during July 2026 I have done pretty well with my workouts and swimming. The print is really small on this calendar, but this is my activity for the month:
Summary:
Swims = Activities: 18 Distance: 47.75 km Time: 17:30:38 Calories: 9,658
Running = Activities: 5 Distance: 31.57 km Time: 3:34:47 Calories: 2,645
Walking = Activities: 21 Distance: 41.39 km Time: 8:48:52 Calories: 3,404
TOTAL = Activities: 44 Distance: 120.71 km Time: 29:54:16 Calories: 15,707
Garmin also sends me a monthly report on my training and health stats.
And that is a wrap for the month of July. Moving onto August and hopefully going to decrease my times and increase my endurance again.
