Hey all,
Getting butterflies... My Great South Bay swim is this Friday morning at 8:30.
Please think of me while you're having your :coffee:
... or swimming your 5000 yard workout... or whatever.
Also, any last-minute words of advice?
5.25 miles, and I'm programming my music listening (including the Rocky theme, hey I'm a Philly girl)... in a device that needs no batteries... my mind. Also programming same device with some positive thoughts and, most of all, prayer.
"Gonna fly, fly, fly!"*
* p.s., This refers to a state of mind, not the famed butterfly stroke, which I can maintain for maybe 25 yards... Doing this swim butterfly is for another year... and/or another person. ;) Hah, although I just noticed the phrase "getting butterflies"... don't tell me my mind is plotting more mischief for future open water swims!

Hey, thanks you guys!
pswim, I hope I get to meet you! I'm no. 43 (black, blue/white print suit, green cap) and will be bringing up the rear which is cool by me as long as I finish!
Get your lawn chair and your mornin' cuppa joe ready, sit back, relax, and enjoy the show!
Hey, Diane,
I have decided to swim with you. Because I am in Honduras, I think there is one hour difference in our time zones this time of year. So, on Friday morning, at 7:30 AM, I will enter the water and I will swim exactly a 5.25 mile. Just know that your friend is swimming the same miles you are at the same time!!
Vibes between athletic friends!!
