Long course.

Hello sorry I haven't blogged since Monday(oops). I didn't swim Tuesday morning as my mum had an interview at school for the Head Of Year job, which she got! Well done mum! So Wednesday morning was really good, Lee coached us and he is a great coach. I really enjoyed the set and I did well, leading the lane for some of the session. I really liked the set as it was varied and it was a good set, although it was a little hard, it was still really good. Then I swam Thursday morning which was coached by Jack. I was the only person from my group but I still enjoyed the session, it wasn't really hard, especially as there were only 3 of us, it was quite quiet. Then Thursday night was fun, although it was hard and I was very tired by the end of it. Friday night I did really well, I was second in the lane, including the frontcrawl set, which I was surprised by as I don't enjoy frontcrawl as I feel that I shouldn't be behind certain people because it means that I am not doing well and I get nervous in case everybody overtakes me. Pete has told me that there is no pressure and that it doesn't matter whether I am at the back of the lane as long as I am trying hard and getting the best out of training, so I have started to try and not get nervous, but I still don't enjoy it. Then last night was long course training. Unfortunately I couldn't  do any breastroke as I had a netball match and I had a bad fall within the first 5 minutes. I cut my knee, elbow and hands and badly banged my other knee, which has been hurting a bit lately. But swimming still went well again for the first part I was second in the lane again for some of it. It wasn't as hard as some of the other sessions we have had but it was one of the best, we did some dives as well. I won't be swimming tonight as I haven't been feeling to well. But hopefully I will feel better in the morning, until next time!
