I'm beyond bored swimming on my own. Even though I have started an adult (unofficial Master's) team at my local YMCA, there are MAX, 5 of us....and usually not all at once...Plus we only practice ONCE A WEEK, on Saturday mornings. It's kind of a joke!:rofl:
Where the heck do I live that I can't find a bunch of GOOD adult competitive swimmers to swim with...ones that want to do some serious workouts even during the week????????????
Sorry. Just venting!:rant3:
If any of you live in Delaware, Maryland or even PA, COME SWIM WITH ME!!!!!!!!!!:wiggle:
I miss swimming with the kids but my 2 day a week fix of kids team is keeping me going. Of course I am very self motivated so I probably push myself too hard some times when I swim on my own.
Then again in the evenings when I am now coaching a local kids team and they start complaining about the interval I ask them "Would you rather swim it on the interval I did this morning?" Then I find they are up to the challenge. They know I swim and that I am on the faster side since we all did a meet together last weekend. I saw some of them writing "Coach Donna" in their programs.
The parents are so appreciative of having me there and I am really loving it.
So you coach as well?!! I would LOVE to Coach. I have only been on a swim team..well ...my whole life! I have so much great advice from my many coaches that I'd love to share!
The YMCA swim team starts practicing in the am on Saturdays here again (which is a problem since our little Master's team is there Saturdays as well). So I may be having to ask to join them anyway!!!!!!
Watch out 12 year olds, here I come!:wiggle:
