Locker Room Koi Fish


Ah, I call myself a brave woman for posting this puffy eyed photo of myself, but here it is. SOoooooo fun to have my BFF here to spend the night and swim in the morning, and of course we have matching suits ;-).

As I was jumping into the pool someone on deck asked me "Hey do you require all your friends to have cute suits?"
Answer: "No, it is not required. But it is strongly encouraged."

*warmup: 4 x 150s, 4 x 75s
*4x100, 50, 2 x 25s
*3x100, 50, 2 x 25s
*2x100, 50, 2 x 25s
*1x100, 50, 2 x 25s

so many little teeny tiny swims I can't remember the rest!

Is that 4 times (100, 50, 2x25) etc OR 4 100s, then a 50, then two 25s? Sorry to bug you, but I steal your workouts all the time and I want to get this one right! Swim on.

You look way more awake at 5:30 AM than I ever do. I have that suit too, and it's my favorite.

Wow. Okay first of all I always go by the assumption that no one reads this blog so this is very exciting to get three comments in one day.

Okay AM, YES I left out the butterfly portion because I'm just too undetail-oriented to mention it, but for David (whooohoooo someone is taking these workouts, yay!) I'll try to be more detailed (David it was 4 x 100s then 1 x 50, then 2 x 25's, not 4 x the whole thing). It was indeed a lot harder and longer than I am representing it as, but seriously I wasn't concentrating :)

MM - dude, I just checked out your blog and I love it (and covet your life!). Glad to find you! And your profile pic is awesome!

For Heidi

I was nervous about visiting Heidi. I remembered her as an always upbeat, caring person who lit up the locker room at 5:45am and made me glad I had gotten out of bed. I knew she took great trips, and lived actively. I knew how happy she was about her son's marriage. Beyond that, I figured I didn't know her very well. I never saw her outside of Burgess, and I consider her a teammate and acquaintance, more than a dear friend. That said, thanks to the environment Tim has created, we teammates at Burgess definitely feel like a part of something bigger - a family, a support system, something. But as Sunday drew near, I considered the fact that I felt a chest cold arriving, and that I would have to depart from my children (who I see too little during the week) for hours to go visit her in San Leandro. I wondered what I would say to her and around her. I wondered if she'd even care to see me. And I almost didn't go. I will forever be glad that I went. And I encourage every one...
