All good things

It's been a heck of a week.  It's been filled with a lot of swimming, lifiting and dryland when I'm not either working or sleeping.  Unfortunately I haven't had a single moment to update this site lately.  The good news is that I've been making solid progress in the pool.  Just this morning I started feeling like I can keep up with a few of the guys during practice.  I've had some positive feedback from the coaches  as well.  I'm noticing I'm a little trimmer than I was a few weeks ago but I haven't weighed myself lately.  I've changed my freestyle as well as my backstroke with the help of the coaches.  One thing is clear to me:  There is no way I would be training this hard, or improving my stroke without being on this team.  If I improve at all this summer, I owe it all to this training situation.  These guys push me every day.  It's been a very positive experience.
