Day three of the twenty week program went as well as it could have given the circumstances! Why is it getting harder and harder to get up at 5:00 in the morning??? Argh! I literally have to talk myself into getting up and trudging over to the pool to get my swim in before work. Maybe one day it'll get easier! I made it to the pool this morning to find that way too many other people had the same idea I did. The lanes were ALL FULL! What's up with that? So I hopped in with three other guys and got going. I don't consider myself all that fast but these guys were kinda just sitting in the water going nowhere. Don't get me wrong, they were taking strokes and kicking. It just wasn't workin' for them. Needless to say, today was a test of patience and slalom skills! They were sure nice guys though! I'd share a lane with 'em again! The swim itself felt pretty good. Each 400 was supposed to progressively faster and I managed to do that. I also found out that my backstroke might just be faster than my freestyle. Strange. A lady in the lane next to me was swimming with flippers. When I swam next to her doing freestyle it was all I could do to keep up. When I backstroked, a seemed to keep up a little easier. Hmm. Have a great day whoever even reads this stuff.
