Grace did not want to swim with us this morning. me & hannah went to the Y pool at 10 am this morning. swam a little different this am. i swam alternating between 100 meters free-style, 100 kick board & 100 arm work out with the floats. i was so impressed that i was able to swim 100 meters without rest during the free-style. i swam a total of 1050 meters. at the end of the swim i pushed myself & swam 150 meters without rest. this swim was a breakthrough. i was able to breath better, pace myself better and push myself. im liking this swimming thing :)
i met a lady named Carol who was ripped and impressive. she asked to share the lane with me so i think that motivated me a little more to push myself. she is 50 and has been swimming for 10 years. all she does is swim 1 hour 5- 6 days a week and 1 hour of pilates once a week. i didn't know that swimming could rip you out like that! that offered even more encouragement.
Great swim! I love your blog by the way!
