How dare I even attend a swim session with such an elite title?! And yet I have been. For the past two weeks, I've been attending Masters swim sessions twice a week. I met Karen Holloway, a swim teaching legend. I've met funny, welcoming "Ed", a kindred spirit in the slow lane. I've met Brooke.
Actually, Brooke was the first person I met. She's everybody's friend. She allowed me to walk into my first session without feeling like I didn't know anyone, (which I didn't!). She introduced me to the coach, which changes with each session. She is a breath of fresh air at 5:50 a.m.!
I started swim lessons with Karen Holloway. She assures me that I will be able to swim the 1.2 miles required for they White Lake swim. I have faith in her ability to assess my inablility and KNOW that if she says I can do it...I can do it!
