So we have a "swim rant" thread, but I wanted to post my "swim happy" moment today, probably brought on by being out of the water for over a week.
Pool reopened after maintenance + clear, fresh perfect temp water + 6 lap lanes between 4 lap swimmers = 4200yd :bliss:
My happy moment of today was our Halloween workout. Thanks so much to Ahelee Sue Osborn for posting this back in 2008:

I printed it out on "spooky" green and orange paper and gave it out to all 6 lanes at FISH practice this morning. Highlights included watching the other lane do wicked zombie impressions while kicking with their arms out of the water, and scaring the hell out of our coach by not telling him that people would be doing ghost and ghoul impressions on the last set! (And personally, when I made a 50 on one breath for the first time ever!)
I love swimming hard, and I love swimming fun. Can't wait for the next holiday!
