I almost wore out a PDF

I've had this PDF document open on my computer for months.  Looking at that number "57.59".  It's finally behind me and I'm feeling very relieved.  I can finally just hunker down and train without worrying if I will actually BE at trials next year.  I can finally tell friends and family that I'm going to Omaha next summer if they would like to come watch the competition.  It gives everybody a chance to save money on flights/hotels if they care to spectate :)

Today I'm taking a day off, letting my body rest while I catch up on some work.  Most of the team is still at Nationals and afterward, they will be taking 3 weeks off prior to starting training again.  Since I haven't been training as long as they have, I'll be in the water tomorrow.  No need for a break just yet.  I have lots of training to do!

I've gotten some very nice congratulatory emails and messages from friends and family, THANK YOU!
