Okay, I thought today was going to be the day that I hit the wall but it wasn’t. Zed was nice enough to drive Birk to school so I decided to get it all done in the morning.  Here is how I did it:

6 x 1650 yrds + 100 yrd sprint (I did it off the blocks and I thought I was going to die)

Notes: Super happy to swim the first one with Rob.  Why does it seem so easy when he is pacing me?  In the middle of the whole main set I did a 1650 for time and dang if it wasn’t one of the faster 1650’s I have done lately…21 minutes 10 seconds. That must mean something.  Due to all of the chlorine, I feel like I am starting to form a hard shell around me.  My suit that was electric blue is now blue gray. Thank goodness for TriSwim shampoo, conditioner, body wash and lotion. They all remove chlorine and neutralize the smell.  My nose will run all day though.  I know the lifeguards think that I am crazy…so when I left today I said “I am out of here, I have had enough of you people”.  I took a portion of a lane for the full 3 hours today. Good to see all my friends.
