Warm 10,000

This morning I went to Steiner and was a little late getting in.  But managed to get 500 yards before joining masters:

600 free
800 - 4 x 200's IM drill
2150 - 25 fly, 2 x 50's bk, 3 x 75 br, 4 x 100 free, 5 x 125's IM, 4 x 100's IM, 3 x 75's free, 2 x 50's back, 1 x 25 back
750 - 10 x 75's pull on 1:00
200 kick
Then did my own thing:

2000 pull
2000 finger paddles
500 - 5 x 100's free on 1:30
200 kick
500 - 5 x 100's free on 1:30


10,200 yards in 3:00  The pool was warm.  Probably 84.  I don't have my watch that takes temp when I swim in the pool cause I use my swimsense or I'd have an accurate temp to report.

I also read this article yesterday, which is kind of embarrassing, because I'm definitely not a "marathon swimming star".  Don't get me wrong I love open water swimming, but I'm not qualified to be listed in the same sentence with Jen Schumacher and Evan Morrison.  They're way out of my league.

ionmerI tend to disagree with you saying your not a star. Look at all your acomplishments and the things that you have done for Open Water Swimming. it has been a pleasure to swim with you, get to know you. In my book you are a Star so don't cut yourself short!

Agreed with Chad. Your humbleness is awesome, but you totally are a star.

Yes, you ARE a star. An ugly one but a star non the less
