Today, I swam a legal 200M IM for the first time in my life – never swam long course as a kid. I can’t believe I thought it would be a fun challenge to enter this in a meet.

I did do a pretty good job estimating my seed time though. Dying now.

Signs of a morning well spent: Our lane knocked out 3,000 yards and hit all our set times, too. #mastersswimming #usms #speedo

Swam before work ...

Am absolutely destroyed. How do people do this?

Today, for the first time in 30 years, I swam in a swim meet ... beat all my made-up, imaginary seed times too.

Swim training, day 1

Me (swimming first couple strokes): I am amazing. Long stokes, powerful. I am an Olympic swimmer Me (second lap): OK, breathing every stroke, um, this is hard Me (third lap): Uh, this is not good. Me (fourth lap): I'm going to need a lane line, or a lifeguard, STAT

The Point to LaPointe swim, 2 miles in Lake Superior, wetsuits recommended, is what I signed up for, along with my three sisters and two nieces.

Getting back to it

As I started preparing for the big swim (and eating better) I opened up my trusty MyFitnessPal .... let's see "very active," "active," "lightly active." Where is "stationary"?

A big challenge

I’ve been very lax for a very long time. But around the new year, my sisters decided we should all do a 2 mile open water swim so I guess that’s that.

Let’s commence seven months of fiercely good eating + training.

This is nearly three years of my life. #nevergiveup

Second try at no dough pizza was even better than the first. I didn't make the cream cheese too thin for the "crust" and it firmed up quite nicely. So filling too. I have leftovers for two meals, and my daughter even had a slice.
