    And then I got home and nobody had saved any dinner for me!!!

    WHAAAAAAT??? I'd be eating furniture... If they're not going to save you some, they should at least text you so you can grab something on the way home!!!

    That's a long swim, Emma! :)

    30 min spash and dash after my second session with the trainer. Turns out that this fall (so Sept-Dec) the rope swing won't be open. This shuts 3 out of 6 laps lanes down. Sooo, the pool was empty!! Good to know :)

    4 miles at my old Y. They open 2 hours earlier than my current Y on Sunday.
    Shared a lane with a guy that does masters swims with his wife.
    It was cool to be "slow" in the pool for a change. :D

    Yay the pool is open again. 1000m Dog paddling with 6 - 8 people per lane yesterday - it was a very slow swim as there were so many people that I was forced into the slower lane as the other lanes were jammed.

    Adult Swim Club starts tonight so that promises to be interesting since I have only had 4-5 swim days since July 1.

    2250y after weights. Noob mistake... I think my trainer wrote out my workout for 1 day (so that I can lift this workout 2xweek). He gave it to me over two days, so when I went in today, I did what I did on the first day, as in, probably 1/2 the workout :neutral: I was already practically in my swimsuit, so I didn't go back in and finish, but I'm sure he wanted me to work out longer than 20 minutes. My jenky knee is giving me a little trouble, so I figured that a shorter workout was probably ok for that too. Hopefully next week when my schedule is back to normal, I'll figure out how to make it all fit in.

    Swim Club last night.
    Kick set night - there was the Good, The Bad and the Ugly, Mine was the ugly.
    I have never had a strong kick, differant muscle loading than running so my run strength does not help my kick.

    typical 150m warm-up, 50 free, pull, kick.

    3 x:
    3 x 30 sec vert kick
    4 x 25 strmline
    4 x 25 flutter board
    4 x 25 1 leg - alternate @25
    100m free - 6 kickbeat-stroke

    400m free
    cooldown 100m choice

    after the 400 free the good kickers did some backstroke - i didn't have time/energy.

    3km

    got kicked in the stomach and was royally ticked off by slow coaches with no regard for other swimmers in the lane. But made it to 3km - thought I was going to run out of time at 2.5!
