Week 1

IT IS COMPLETE:)

I finished the first week and did every workout! There is no stopping me now. I think that I feel like I can do this everyday a little more. This training schedule better work because I am really following it closely.

I DID IT!!!! I went to the pool last night at about 8:45 and I swam it was the best and much more challenging than I thought. The challenge came from my own stupidity...Jen has nicely given us a training schedule that stated we chould complete 500 yds today in the pool. 8 laps to warm up and cool down and then 4x25 in a drill. Well smarty that I am I was like she must mean 4 reps of 25 laps...well seeing as the pool is 25 yds across I was starting to get pretty beat when lightning struck 4 laps of 25 yards haha....well I got a little extra workout in the pool yesterday. When it was all said and done I was glad I went and it was not as scary as I thought.

OK things have been going well started a really good healthy eating program on Monday, went for a run Tuesday and today was the day for me to go swimming. I researched the pool and found out the busy times. Deciding to avoid previously mentioned busy times I decided I would wake up at 5:15 AM and go to the pool before work....well all I can say is the swim center website LIED!!! I got to the pool around 2 minutes before they opened and there was legitimatly at least 70 people standing in the lobby and spilling out all over the side walk..I just kept on driving came home showered and went to work early.

Why Laura Why would you not just jump into the fray! THE POOL IS SCARY! If there are not enough lanes you have to share and if there are not enough to accomidate 2 people per lane you have to have more than 2 and circle swim...I have enough trouble swimming in a straight line I really don't see me being successfull at swimming in a circle!

I just don't know how this is going to work if I am to intimidated to even get out of the car at the pool...Why is there never a time that the pool is not crazy busy...is it to much to ask to have a lane to myself...am I crazy?
