950

This morning I got up, laid out my goggles and swim cap. Got my swim suit and towel out of the dryer (where its been since last monday) and packed up and went to work. Then I went to the pool this evening, and unpacked. Only my swimsuit and towel was all I had. Apparently I left the goggles and swim cap laid out on my table. great.

I was tired and not excited to swim anyways. But I tried w/ no goggles. (I keep wanting to type google instead of goggle), and that was one of the worst laps of my life. It didnt' work w/ my eyes open or closed. So I borrowed some goggles, and still felt like I was swimming terribly. and I was hungry and tired. And of course this was the day that our workout included a 950 m. which is like more than double the length of anything we've done consistently.

We somehow all succeeded in finishing. when the distance is that long I was able to just forget about it (cause the end is nowhere in sight) and just keep swimming. I'll add that I wasn't swimming very well. My body suddenly forgot how to breath on the left side... but I swam decently I suppose. I mean. I didn't drown, and I kept going. so that is something right?
