I really don't like night swimming

Actually I love night swimming if it's in open water.   But swimming in a pool at night when there is a hundred kids and who knows how many are urinating.  The water is cloudy, and warm and even with ear plugs it's chaotic.  I'm ready for bed and should be helping get the kids to sleep but instead I'm trying to stay motivated in the pool.

Since Cathi started her job, there are some mornings that I will be helping get the kids off to school instead of nearing the completion of my morning swim.  I'm bummed, but it's the role of being a Dad and I gotta take it.  So no whining about that, but I will whine about night swimming.

Tonight's workout was a upwards ladder from 1 to 1000:

100 free easy
200 IM
300 - 4 x 75's free/scull/free :10ri
400 kick
500 free focus on EVF
600 - 3 x 200's free/IM/free
700 - 2 x (300 pull, 50 stroke pull)
800 - 4 x 200's free on 3:00
900 - 9 x 100's desc 1-3 on 1:30
1000 pull

5,500 yards total in 1:30
