In the pool

I got into the pool today for a half hour, it felt great. Worked on my stroke, breathing off my left side ( it needs some work ) and my right were I feel really comfortable. All in all it was a great day in the pool for me. I really love it and I  want to make swimming a big part of my training for this upcoming season. I want to be a beast in the water. My knee is still bothering me so I am going to see a doctor, but I will still race on wed ( only 2.5 miles ) and then again on the 6th ( 5k ). I'm just going to stay in the pool and work on my stroke. Build my endurance through swimming.

 On the Emil front, not to sure if we want to call him Emil now. Holly and I had a little talk and we decided we want to give him a strong name and we do not know if Emil is strong enough. I'm sure he is going to a strong person just by how bull headed Holly and I are and the physical strength we have. I have always been a pure athlete with my first 10k at age 5  (I was 4 we just lied to get me into the race) and Holly's horseback riding I think Emil will be doing hand stands we he is born. Can't wait till I see his face, only 4 1/2 months till I do. I get more and more excited to see him.
