There is a "no whining about event order" pledge,but this is more general so I thought I'd start a new thread.
I was thinking about the whining I had here to for done at meets and decided enough was enough.
I resolve not to whine about not being ready for the meet(inadequate training,inadequate taper,inadequate sleep,etc.)
I resolve to not whine about feeling sick,hurt,sore etc.
I resolve that no matter what I think about my swim,if someone says "good swim" I will graciously thank them.
This will probably make meets a better experience for all around me.
Does anyone else feel a need to make a pledge?
Perfect timing, Allen! I went late to practice this morning, a short one because we have a meet Saturday. Coach said to warmup 500 and he would time me for a 50 sprint before he left. Did so. Upon hearing the time, I immediately said, "That's pitiful!" Then I stopped and realized I had almost no warmup, it was during a hard working section of our program, and, besides, I'm lucky to be still swimming anywhere near that at my age and my shape.
Count me in!
