A Swimmer's Typical Saturday

I Am A Swimmer

I'm writing this so other people know why I'm so tired all the time.

People who don't see me after one of these, I'm pretty tired.

Let me tell you why.

Wake up= different times. Today was 6:00, so not too early.

    Get dressed in a swimsuit that squishes your shoulders(I am a girl...).

Pack a giant bag with food and clothes and 2 towels, like you are going on a trip to a beach a billion miles away.

Get in the car.

Drive for an hour or so, but not enough time to catch a few Z's.

Involuntarily jump into a pool that feels like they just scooped the ice out and swim a warmup.

Swim 1-5 races during a meet anywhere from 3-6 or 7 hours.

 After each race, talk to a coach about it, then dash to your soaking wet towel, grabbing a slurp of Gatorade and a handful of whatever snackies you brought.

Drag yourself home.
Do It Again On Sunday...

  

I love to swim!! :)

 I was experimenting with font colors... :)

And, seriously, swimming is super fun. It isn't all fun and games, but you get a sense of accomplishment and a great workout. So, please, don't think I was ranting. I just wanted to get it out there.
