Just an Average SKIRT

Back in the pool today for 2100 yards. My arms felt a fatigued at first but I soon warmed up and felt right at home. As my first official Ironman swim training day I have to say, I feel like I could belt out the 2.4 tomorrow. Really looking forward to this greatest test, I can’t wait to drink a bottle of Rescue Remedy and start stroking at the sound of the gun. How can I feel so ready so early….I’m not ready, not even close but man am I psyched up for IM. I feel like I was meant to do this, I was meant to test myself and my limits. Sometimes I get tired of being out of my comfort zone but in the end, I wouldn’t change a thing. When the going gets tough I always say “I just want to be one of those women with skinny fingers who doesn’t like to sweat”. Maybe I could be her for a moment but for the long haul, I’ll take my muscular massage therapist hands and a sweat soaked workout any day of the week.

Gotta get to bed, another 4am on the alarm clock tomorrow.
