Sore!

Been a few weeks since my last update.

Davis meet was great - I finished pretty much dead last in my age group in all 3 events, but I put a good showing all things considered. My 50Y Free was 0:33, 50Y Back was 0:42, and my 100Y Free came in around 1:24 (I swallowed a gallon of water at 75 yards and had to sidestroke.) The only heat I finished last in was the 100Y Free. Considering that 3 months ago I could barely pull out a 50Y in ~60 seconds, I'd say I'm improving well.

This morning my shoulders have been mega-sore, either from lack of stretching or over-reaching on my free crawl. We did 9 X 100 sets, I finished about 850Y on 2:10 per.

More good news is that I continue to lose weight. I'm wobbling between 198 and 202 now, but my diet isn't letting me lose weight in big chunks. Slow and steady so it stays off. Friends have commented that I look slimmer, and my size 36 pants (that were big before) are downright drowning me now. I could easily get in a 34 or 33 now without too much trouble.

Starting to look at my options for next spring's Tri meets as the registration / calendars are opening up. Can't wait to get it going!
