And it's usually corrected quickly after the 2nd or 3rd time I've jammed my fingers into a lane line...Great comparison...It will be in my mind next time there's blind swimming... And GREAT job on the 3500!!!

These days were I’m doing slow distance and sticking to the track because of the weather I end up with a lot of time to think about the technique that I’m using for my running and stride and so on.. Now if we can apply this in the rest of our life.. Slow down and do it properly. <BR/><BR/>Cheers. <BR/><BR/>Rice. <BR/><BR/>PS.

As I walked out the door I noticed you were all alone. <BR/><BR/>So if you did have to take a pee break no one would know.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15903883660163304283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402707.post-1141173659010355892006-02-28T19:40:00.000-05:002006-02-28T19:40:00.000-05:00Great swim, TriSara!

It's even pretty funny that I like Tri, since it requires extraneous equipment - the bike.

Swimming is SO much technique...boys are always so surprised to get their butts kicked in the pool when they can run/bike so fast. Kind of fun, until they figure out the form thing for themselves. :/<BR/><BR/>Awesome swim this morning; follow it up with a kick-ass track workout!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402707.post-1141165080319615222006-02-28T17:18:00.000-05:002006-02-28T17:18:00.000-05:00Wow.
