I WENT SWIMMING THIS MORNING!! Oh my goodness gracious, it was fantastic to get in the pool again. I grabbed my suit, cap, and goggles this morning and headed down to the Rec. Luckily there were a couple other people in the pool, so I wasn't making the lifeguards work just so that I could swim. I didn't do much... I did a 500 free, 400 IM drill, and then 100 easy. I wasn't in any sort of rush, and took my time. I could hear Coach Dennis' voice in my head at some points... so funny! I loved just being able to glide through the water, and the comfort that the water provided. I hadn't swam a practice in 11 months... So, even though this was no where near a "practice", I still was in the water and LOVING it!
I forgot how much enjoyment I used to get from swimming, and the calmness that I would feel when I was just gliding through. I was ALL smiles when I was in the water. I think I was even laughing to myself at some points about how much I missed the water. I loved it!! This is going to become a regular thing, and I'm so excited!
