Swimmer Girl June 22, 2005
Posted by vollenda in : General , add a commentGreat swim this morning…800m - drills again and then a relaxing 400. Then weights for 30 minutes. Both shorter then planned because I had trouble getting going this morning. I really do enjoy working out in the mornings though. Last night it was 92 on my ride home and was I ever glad I’d already run in the cool morning air! I don’t mind the heat on the bike, but running in it is bleah!
Anyway…a friend once called me Swimmer Girl and I laughed at the time. Who me? I’m just trying not to drown! 
In the beginning, swimming was such a struggle – no endurance, flailing about, breathing issues, feeling panicked, etc. But I have to say, I do feel like a Swimmer Girl now. My stroke is getting better. Breathing is almost second nature. And definitely no more panic. And the flailing? Well, let’s just say no one tries to rescue me anymore! LOL I really enjoyed my swim this morning. Yep, I’m thinking swimming is now a part of my routine because I like it and not because I “have” to do it for tris.
