:help: Sorry, just a rant for those of you out there who sympathsize with my college swimming experience.. Okay, I have not spoken to my coach since his comment after my 100free at championships regarding the fact that I don't have any heart, and thats why I am swimming poorly. I can't imagine saying that someone doesn't have heart, when they've given sweat, blood and tears to the sport all in one season. If I wasn't caring that I was stinking, then maybe it would be reasonable to say I didn't have heart, but I was miserable and trying anything to improve my season...so that annoyed me, and I didn't talk to him for the rest of the meet, and haven't talked to him since. Got an e-mail today that he is making it mandatory that we attend 3 practices a week with him, from now till the end of the semester. #1. it has been 3 months since championships==why now? #2. This is the most hectic time of the semester for EVERYONE #3. I don't want to swim with him in the off season, which is why I am doing masters :( Miserable in Albany

  • Good luck, Morgan! I recommend doing whatever it takes to have fun while swimming. The meet I met you, I had a bad 500 and I let it ruin the rest of the meet and the whole weekend. Never again! I will not walk into a meet again without a smile and will not walk out without having had an awesome time competing, talking with friends, meeting fellow forumites, etc! Life is too short! somewhere, off in the distance, a herd of rabbits are knawing on alfalfa and chanting your name... Morgan! Morgan! Morgan!:banana: :D
