And so ends the second week of swim team this year. (There was a break over, the break.)
Today, our coach got mad at me and 2 friends for being lazy. It kind of wasn't our fault, because the kid who went ahead of us just decided to go by himself. No one told him to; he just left. We 3 are faster than him, but since we're usually lazy anyway(and be polite and let others go first) we were just like, ok,....
And so for our pulling set we were going pretty slow. (pretty slowly)

When we finished our set, our coach was like, "[my name], N. and B. get out.

We're like uh oh. shoot. sigh*

Our coach: "You guys should have gone first/You guys were lazy/ blah blah blah/<stuff about being slow>. Now go do 2 laps of lunges.

[us]: "sigh* sigh* ah man....sigh* darn....<assorted profanity from one of us>...ugh...it's so cold....sigh*.....darn......"

And so we proceed to lunge twice around the pool. A little into the first lap as we approach the island thingy, I'm like, "We should go onto the island." (In case you're wondering, the "island" is this little part of solid ground that juts into the pool, pretty much separating the shallow end from the deep end). And so we do. We do lunges for like an extra 15 feet. My feet got all cold and numb, and the rest of my body pretty much dried off. It wasn't that cold, and there was sun.

darn my knees hurt so much. To be specific, the little section right above my kneecap(up as in towards face{up as in sky}or upper thighs, not literally covering the kneecap) where the muscle sort of connects(I think?) was really sore. When I hopped/fell back into the water my thighs almost cramped up. They were so tight; I felt like if I moved my legs a bit they would cramp up. It was a weird sensation. And it turns out: I tried sort of moving my legs and my left thigh cramped up for like .3 seconds. sigh* I had to barely move my legs for almost a minute. And then I got out and stretched. And then swam 5 fifties on the 40.
