Yet another new swim term, I see a few new faces. I think we have about 5-6 guys in my lane, with me being the only lady. Asked coach if I can switch to the other lane, he said stick to it, else gotta zig zagging a lot. Hmm...I'm obedient but these guys, besides Lala and Leo, the rest are rather....rough. No sense of direction for some :( Got hit for 3-4 times throughout the entire session. Menu for the day.....

300m finger dragging drills
6 x 100m paddle/buoy
5 x 300m 70-80% efford

How wrong am I thinking that's the end of it. Agony continues....10 x 50m interval! Hmm...just like doing intervals right after LSD. How nice is that. DNF BIG TIME. No energy to power up at all. Either I OTOT 'warm-down' to complete the set or call it the day. I tried.... for 2 x 50m. CMI. Enough said.....

After 2 weeks of rather sedentary life except the weekly torturing swim session which somehow really helps in a way or another, am glad that the engine didn't have much problem starting up. Nice cooling 8k round neighborhood. I went home....slept like a pig

Next week.....just in time for a 'warmer' weather (by their standard) and not too disturbed by all the fluffy white thingie that could possibly take you 6 hours to drive through a 10mile motorway. Here I come....... Oh well...it's business. Nothing to be excited about. It's probably going to be quite routine Mon-Friday......
