slow.

man, oh man, today was hard. I don't know what it was. for a split second, I thought about ditching swimteam and just staying in my cozy bed. maybe I should've. I rolled in to the pool a few minutes late. I only got a 200 warmup in. there were two other girls already in my lane. (and, just so you know, it wasn't the slowest lane) this is where things started to go downhill. with each length of the pool I saw myself slipping farther and farther behind. these girls didn't seem like they were that fast. was I just really that slow? at one point, while I was waiting at the wall to start my next set (the other girls had already left the wall before I got there), the coach came over and said, "you're doing great!" as if to say, hang in there, even if you're slow you're still swimming hard. yeah. it was a tough workout for me. maybe I was just tired. I don't know.

even though it sucked and I was trying so hard to catch/keep up (and failing) I know it was good for me. it was a tough workout and it kept me humble.
