Today I got in the pool and attempted a swim lesson for a friend of mine from church. I fear I was more hindering than helpful. I have bad habits (my "coach" tells me he wants to cut off my left arm because I can't enter the water correctly on that side) and I am really slow, but I am also far from denying a friend assistance. I figure perhaps in my whirlwind of information there might be a piece of wisdom in there.
I got into the water and it was like a dream! I was surrounded by fellow triathletes (which ALWAYS get the motivation flowing) and the swim team had forgotten to take down their lane lines, so we had 4 lanes!!! It was awesome! I didn't do much of my own working out but I had fun doing some drills!
So basically I just told her to how to use the pull buoys, the swim paddles and how to roll to breathe. It was HOPEFULLY productive, but at least we had fun :)
It was VERY productive for me, THANK YOU so much!!! I did my homework this week, I got all flubbed up and looked pretty stupid, but I did it! You're awesome!
