Sign up for the Meet



If for no other reason, than to allow your kids to see you loose gracefully and cheerfully, like me here in this photo at our last meet :).

You may have to be persistent, as the online meet sign ups didn't actually allow me to process my registration, but I'm going to keep trying (400 Free whooohooo!).

Speaking of whoohoooo, today's workout was:

500 warm-up with 1 length fly, 1 length breast, 1 length back
1000 with 10th length fly, 20th length back, 30th length breast
800 with same pattern by 8's
600 with same pattern by 6's
and finally, 6 x 100's fast with one length stroke

Butter My Buoy?

I know it's going to be a good day when the morning opens with one of my muscled male teammates (fully clothed of course) opening his parka to me for warmth while listening to the warm up set. (Apparently he hadn't heard about this damning blog yet :). Things just got better (if that's possible) from there. The fact that the main set was done with paddles didn't lessen my excitement when I heard Tim say "Eight 300's." Whooohoooo! Freestyle junkie heaven. Little did I know this uber set would also be a chance for me to improve my swim-cabulary. After the first 300, Emmit (correct my spelling if need be) popped up during the rest period and said, "Okay. Someone buttered my buoy". Fabulous. I don't know if Emmit made this term up or if I've just been unfortunate enough thus far in my career not to hear it, but I love it. I immediately knew exactly what he meant. This whole buoy buttering is exactly why I never, ever, use a buoy. It drives me...
