May 15: still sucking, but this time in long course

1700m this morning.  I weep to admit that that is the longest swim I have had all year.  

Another week, another Monday swim and then no others - I'm traveling at the end of this week, so that makes the likelihood of splashing all the smaller.  And so, yes, the once a week swims still suck.  Today, though, I was surprised to see on arrival at the Rose Bowl Aquatic Center that it was set up for long course, not short.  Long course usually means the irritation of circle swimming with people of varying speeds (though that wasn't the case on a curiously quiet morning at the pool today), and it also means fewer turns and longer stretches from wall to wall.  Ugh.

Ah well.  I made it through.  Three swims in May.  Wow.🙄🙄🙄
