I really did it!
I really did it!
I'm still sort of in shock of what I've accomplished. I dropped a full 4 seconds in 3 (broken) months of training in my 100 Backstroke. I balanced life and training while joining a team, relocating cities and keeping up with work. I set a goal of making a trial cut before the end of the summer. This was the last meet I could swim the 100 Backstroke LCM at. I prepared as best as I could while maintaining my workload, traveled out to Palo Alto, California and made it happen. I achieved my goal. I have about 11 months of training before the 2012 Olympic Trials in Omaha, Nebraska. I will be setting a time based goal soon. I will develop a game plan on how to achieve it. I hope Club Wolverine is part of that plan. At some point in the next month, I will inquire upon my future with the club. I am officially ranked 43rd in the country in the 100m Backstroke. I feel I have demonstrated in a brief amount of time what I'm capable of with just a little training. I hope the staff at Club Wolverine sees the same potential I do.
I'm Ready.
