So....there are only 8 days to go until my first big race!! I'm excited and scared at the same time. I did manage to go and swim in Lake Michigan the other day. I was pleasantly surprised with how it went. the water wasn't super cold. My wet suit felt good. The only problem is I can't see the bottom of the lake and that totally freaks me out. Not just freaks me out but I get disoriented. First I swam straight out into the lake and then I turned myself around and crashed into the wall. I'm hoping its easier to swim in a straight line when there are more people present.
My body feels good right now. I feel strong and fast. I'm excited to race, however I think this up coming week will be a long one as I wait in anticipation!!
