Tuesday Night Swim

I love my Tuesday night swims. The past few weeks since I've been swimming at the college, they have been really big nights for me. I really like the college, pool too. It's not crowded like it is at the Y, most nights I have had the locker room to myself. I don't feel rushed when I'm there. It just feels good.

I logged 2250 yards in my training log for tonight but I swam farther than that. I'm just not sure how far. If I'm doing sets, and I forget which one I'm on I'll go with the lowest number. If I forget which lap I'm on, I'll go with the lowest number. I forget a lot tonight while I was swimming. Not necessarily a bad thing, because I was able to clear my mind and just swim, but not a good thing when you're trying to keep track of how far you've gone. I lost track 3 times in one 300 yard swim. I lost track of how many 300's I'd done. I lost track in a 100, that one may have turned into a 200 because I was sort of timing myself and while I know I'm slow, it does not take me over 4 minutes to swim 100 yards.

It doesn't matter how far I went, I felt good. I'm not worried about the distance at Black Bear, and now I'm starting to focus on speed for Hagerstown.
