Here I go ....

Tomorrow I leave for Coeur d'Alene!! Coach Paul told us that we should be getting LOTS of sleep now, and usually I'm pretty good at that. This morning, though, I was up at 4:00 and couldn't get back to sleep. So I decided to get up and get stuff done in the hopes that I can get to bed early (by 8:00pm) tonight since I have to be at the airport at 4:30am tomorrow.

Last night was our last swim practice. Here I am (blue shorts & sweatshirt) walking into the pool with teammates Raul, Laurie, and Dean.
To simulate race conditions, each of us had to swim through the "gauntlet".. .. apparently it's a TnT tradition. Some said ours was pretty tame, but it sure didn't feel that way to me. And Matt reminded us all that we could all do this for 6 hours! So there.

What the hell am I going to do with myself after this?!
