Start of Season

I recently had my first official team practice for swimming. Needless to say I slept like a baby that night. On the first day of practice our coach decided to give us a test set, which was 7x100's on 1:25 then descending interval for every set, which went through 4 times. With a 300 in between every set that comes out to 4,000 yards. That was more than I've swam combined since I've been at school. Everyone was beat after that, and then we finished off with an extended sprint set. If anyone doesn't know swimming, 1 lap is equal to 25 yards, 2 is 50, etc. So 4,000 yards is equal to 160 laps. We ended up doing about 5,500 yards, so all in all it was a god day.

On other news, I'm going home on Thursday which is pretty exciting. I haven't seen any of my family in a month, and I'm going to surprise them by coming home unannounced. Hopefully all goes well.
