Round two: 4 PM. We each got to do 20 x 100 of our very very favorite stroke, on descending intervals – who's complaining?! I mean, it's our specialty stroke for a reason. It's special to us and we love it! There were smiles all around, my friends. Oh happy day.
Round three: 6 PM. We heard that apparently we were skipping right into "a real humdinger" of a workout by our beloved Coach Hise.
Hum. Humm. Hmmm. Uh oh.
It was only 22 minutes of lifting! 6 minutes here, 12 minutes there, another 4 at the end. Peas and carrots, right? Wrong!! I have no doubt that in those 22 minutes we sweated out all of the chlorine we had just absorbed in the pool. I bet the other people in the gym even thought there was a leak from the pool air or something.
End: 6:40 (we had to take some breaks in between the Sets of Doom, ok?) 40 clean-smelling, sweat-covered, shaky and tired-feeling champions stumble out of the weight room. Thanks Hise, you always know the best way to finish out our day!!
