Ready..VENT! What keeps you from getting to the pool?
Me first.
I am so bummed. Traffic was all jammed up because of an accident and oil spill on the expressway. It took me 2 hours and 10 minutes to get home. That's a 10 mile drive. I could have run faster if they let me take a straight line on the highway. I sat and peeled and ate an orange without even creeping forward. And not one of those tangelos or zipper peel kinds. Thank goodness I had snacks. I certainly didn't think to visit the ladies room before I left work. Normally even in the worst of traffic it's less than an hour. I couldn't even get off the highway because all the exits were jammed because the city was blocked up because people couldn't get on the highway.
And I thought traffic was going to be wasy because of school vacation week.
I work full time and go to school part time. That ate up all my swimming time for the evening. I went to work and left work early to get in some good pool time tonight.
Blech.
Your turn...NEXT!

Hey Beth,
I miss you too!!! But I feel that through this board we are still close!! I get to read just what you are up to! As I mentioned to another pal on this board, would it be okay to swim vicariously through your achievements?! How fun would that be - at least for me!!
Seriously though, my eyes are doing very nicely while out of the water and for that, I could not be more pleased and grateful.
A tri would be awesome!! I have a long way to go on my running though. I miss you guys at Swim Atlanta. I'm hoping that in the future, if I can get in even once a week or once every other week or even once a month, that would be fantastic!!!
So, I hear you want to swim the 200 fly!! That is excellent in my living vicariously through you! What should you/ we shoot for? Beat Fin Bob?
Take care! I love you!

Kristina,
This makes me very sad!! :( I'm going to miss you soo much!! I know you love swimming and I'm so very sorry to hear you may have to give it up.
I have been out of the water for almost two months due to my shoulder/neck/back injury. I had no idea you were not swimming with the team. I worked out at noon (1 hour) with the team yesterday for the first time in almost 2 months! I'm going to try to build up to start the morning practices (1 1/2 hours) within a month or two. I just assumed you would be there in the morning when I came back!
You are such a great athlete that I'm sure whatever you do, you will be successful. Maybe we could do a triathlon relay together? We just need a biker. (Kris?)
I'm missing you!
