Stroke count: 19-20 - Clint needs to tell me more about measuring stroke count by time, rather than distance, which he says is more relavent to open water swimming.

Felt: Much needed, but difficult, because still feel like I have this cold! And swimmer's ear!
Challenges/Progress: Breathing, whether it was every three or every four, whether it was on right or left, felt way more natural. Am so glad the Y is now on its Fall schedule, so there are way more lap lane times. The whole place is less crowded. Fist drill felt more natural. As part of Endurance, Intermediate, Week 2, Workout 2, I had to swim for 10:00, tracking my distance. I was disappointed it was only 425. I had hoped for 500. My pace is still on the slow side. However, considering I couldn't climb the stairs in my house 6 months ago (Graves disease), I have made so much progress! All in all, I'm so pleased and grateful to be able to swim again!
Fears: None
Emotion: Determined
Learned:
1) Need to swim 3 days/week!! This will become easier to do, once the girls start preschool :)
2) I'm coming down with a cold.
