Yesterday I was shown the affirmation that I can actually swim and moved to a higher lane. Once in that higher I was then shown that I can't really swim but i'm close. It's crazy, last year when I started triathlon (and organized swimming) I was in the second to last lane. The only people below me were the people who were learning how to swim, and now i'm in the second to highest lane. Granted i'm the weakest in my new lane, i'm still there (sounds like Celie from The Color Purple.) This really makes me excited because I know it's only going to make me better, and shows i've been doing the right things. Since, my hiatus from blogging i've actually started swimming on Wednesday mornings with a clubmate, yes I wake up before work and go swimming and on Friday afternoons. I usually don't realize that it's 6:30 in the morning and i'm in a pool on Wednesdays til about 100m in. Straight cruise control. My clubmate and I sorta have a deal that if one of us doesn't come we get to talk trash about them in internet world. It's got me out of bed the last three weeks ... whatever works. Shout out to TL for sharing what he's learned in his swim lessons, his pointers have definitely helped my swim stroke.
In other news it's actually snowing in Atl... again. Stopped me from going to my lunch workout today. I think i'm going to regret that later, but I will worry about that bridge when I get to it. The weather in Georgia has been like a bad Roller Coaster (space mountain with the lights on), snowing today 60 on Saturday. I'm getting rather tired of this ride, the General said spring was coming. It has to be right around the corner.
Tonight i'm thinking of braving the elements and running in the snow/rain at least for 3 or 4 miles. I can't really afford to get sick right now with ING so close but I also need the miles. It will be a game time decision.
