HP05 Rekindled her LOVE of the Swim… and had flash backs to college
First of all, a HUGE congratulations to HP04 on her first triathlon and HP01 for another job well done. Welcome HP10! Soon ladies, soon I will partake in an HP event. One is much needed soon for this HP’s soul!
What has she been doing you ask?? Well, a few of her co-workers have left; therefore this HP is doing about 3 jobs. F.U.N. She has had time to squeeze in a few swims, but none blog worthy. Until last night.
Why was this swim blog-worth? Well, HP05 had THE BEST SWIM SHE HAS HAD SINCE HIGH SCHOOL!!! She felt so smooth in the water, strong arms, and a good breathing rhythm. Her goal was 2 miles, with a break between each mile in about 75 minutes. As she approached the half way point, she realized there was no need to stop. That’s right, 2 miles (3600 yards) straight, in 65 minutes!! The best part, she didn’t want to stop. She could have kept going, however the pool was closing down and she had to get out. But, this swim gave her the confidence that she needed to know she can do the 4.4 mile swim across the Chesapeake Bay in 33 days. YAY!!!
Why was this a flash back to college? Well, after such a great swim, HP05 had to go home and write her paper for class. This was reminiscent of her water polo playing days in college when she would play polo for 2 hours, then go study and write papers for undergrad. Ahhh the good old days…
HP05 did actually play against a few guys who looked like this…
