The last swim! and bikes are gone!

Last night was our last coached swim practice before Lavaman! Wohoo. We did a warmup, some drills, and then a 1000 yd swim... Our lane was smaller than usual (only 4 people), some of whom I'd never swam with before, and we did the whole 1000 with anyone passing! It was nice to all be the same speed.

The distance went by, as I just kept swimming... And didn't seem too horrible. As usual it was nice to finish.

I'm excited, we leave for Hawaii a week from today! Also, I've made it to within just a few hundred dollars of my fund raising goal. I dropped off my bike on Tuesday morning to get shipped - it is now en-route to Hawaii. Now I really just need to remember my pedals.

I'm a little worried that I won't really be faster than last year. I'm not sure I've really improved much, though I suppose I just put in an equal amount of work as last year... sigh. I should be a few minutes faster in swimming, and hopefully I'll push myself more in the run.

Training so far:
Bike: 184
Run: 100.5
Swim: 19650 yd
