New Year's Eve!

Happy last day of 2009! I've got zero New Year's Resolutions this year and that's just how I like it. But, my BFF, who comes and swims with us at Menlo whenever she's visiting, does have some. People are either goal-oriented or not, and she IS. She's an organizational inspiration to me - check her out on the JuiceBox in the featured video today!

I'm ready for the 100x100's but am probably going to do them on Saturday because 8am is too late to start for me (I know that sounds nuts to the rest of the world, yes).

Today's workout:

*3 x 100's free, 50 back, 50 choice
repeat 2x

add pull gear for:

*300, 200, 100
repeat 3x

*2 x 400's

Happy New Year!

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...
