So today the coach made us swim the ENTIRE practice with a tennis ball under our chin. I can see this for a drill, but he wanted a 800 warm-up swam this way and then 100 SPRINT sets. ARE YOU KIDDING ME! :frustrated: We spent more time chasing the stupid ball than swimming. I ended up putting mine on the gutter where he did not see it and my neighbor put hers in her swimsuit during the 800. After 4 100's she suggested he let us do 50's instead and then I swam those like a drill. (I am usually the one who complains, so he doesn't listen to me as much). Ended up doing only 2000 in the hour and all day I walked around work with a raw chin and neck.:rant3:. Last time I swim with a tennis ball!:badday:
