400 Meters!

I swam 400 meters today! And (though it should be obvious by this post) I didn't die in the process!

Here's the skinny: I swam 400 meters, resting for less than a minute every 100 meters. No freestyle, but plenty of breast and back stroke.

My goggles weren't leaking, my cap was sleeking and I my breast stroke felt easier and more efficient than ever. I was on my way to feeling great on my penultimate lap when I saw the man who had been swimming next to me jumped back into the pool causing some waves. It was then I realized that the man I had been feeling pretty good about keeping pace with only had one leg.

I have some work to do.
