Total: 2900

So it snowed last night, sometime between when I finally went to bed at 12:30AM and got up at 5:00AM for practice. Which meant that, even though I did leave a couple minutes earlier than usual, I was at least five minutes late this morning. Blah. No one got in my lane before 5:50, so our warmup set was short, and I felt like I was behind the whole workout.

We had some serious issues with counting in our lane today, too. Laurie messed me up a couple times, which is part of why I cut that last 75 short. I was doing the 75 sets free/back/free/breast/free/back/free/fly, but I only got to do the kicking part of the fly (which is why I added that 2 x 25 fly onto the end). Then I think Laurie did one of the 3 x 100 free drill sets as a 50 (because, once again, I was trying to do 100 of three different drills, 100 catchup, 100 hesitation, 100 fist), and then I managed to do an extra 50 of one of those 2 x 200 pull sets I did (and made poor Tom do an extra one as well, since he was following me).

I never managed to keep up with the yardage today, or else I probably would have swam at least another 100-300 yards at the end, but bleh. I've got stroke clinic today at lunch, and then volleyball tonight, so it's not like I'm not going to get enough exercise. I'm at 11.7 miles as of this morning, so I'll definitely hit 12 by this afternoon, which keeps me on track for my goal this year (12 miles by the 12th of January for 365 miles on the year). We'll see how that keeps up.
