It's been a long time...

Okay, well, haven't updated in a while...but then again, I haven't swam in over a week. March 3-4th I was at the Maryland Masters Winter meet. That was pretty nice, my first masters meet.

On Saturday I swam the:
200free
100free
50 fly
I don't have the exact times in front of me but none of them were best times or anything. I was kinda disappointed with the times but I hadn't gotten much sleep the night before and that morning we had learned a family friend had passed away so I probably wasn't in the best of mindsets to have an awesome day. I placed 1st in the 200, 3rd in the 100 and 2nd in the 50.

On Sunday (my 21st birthday!) I swam:

200IM
50Free
100IM
And I did awesome. The 200IM I did a 2:22.0 which is 4seconds faster than the time I did at St. Rose this season and only 1 second off my best time which I did way back in 8th grade. That made me happy because I really worked on all my strokes and the im in general that week before. The 50free I also did a best time of the season a 26.2 wihch is faster than I went at my college championships on a shave and taper. And the 100IM I did a 1:07 something, I died on that event, and had forgotten to take my inhaler so it wasn't great, but I definatly didn't care after having had such a great meet.

I also met Muppet and Mollie from the forums, that was cool. Mollie and I swam in the same heat for the 100IM...She creamed me haha.

I haven't been in the pool since the meet unfortunatly, I meant to go this morning, but couldn't get out of bed...but I WILL go tonight. I just want to swim a 2hour consecutive swim tonight, to get some yardage in and loosen out. I got a swimp3 player for my birthday so I'm gonna just put that on and swim swim swim. Tomorrow I will start interval training again, but I think from here out I am gonna work a few consecutive swims into my training, since I will be doing some open water events come this summer and they obviously are much longer than what I normally interval train for.

Additionally, I really need to get on the ball and start running and biking a bit more. I definatly am NOT in shape at the moment, too much lally gaging around. So hopefully today between classes I will go to the gym and run a little and then swim after classes tonight.
