Beware of the sirens that swim with Indy Swimfit on Fridays. I thought this Friday would be a nice relaxed swim b/c most of the coaches are down in FL for Nationals, but I was very wrong. I was in my usual lane, the one that is just marginally faster than the people that sink, when these two very attractive ladies with matching IUPUI swim caps asked if they could share the lane. I gladly welcomed them because I usually swim with a guy that looks like Chewbacka’s brother. The next hour and a half they kicked my ass with extreme prejudice. They smiled and had nice little comments to keep me going between sets.
I have fallen off my bike after a long, hard ride and puked after running, but I haven’t received a skull dragging like that since I tried to keep up with Bob Kennedy on a ten mile training run.
All in all it was a good work out, and I will gladly go back for my weekly ass kicking from the swim sirens of IUPUI.
In the three years that I have been a master’s swimmer, I have learned that if a young, fit-looking woman joins us for the morning workout, the people in whatever lane she is in(usually Lane 1) is about to get their asses kicked.
I hear ya brother. I swim in an open lane next to my 14 year old daughter during her practice and am amazed at their speed. I get passed no matter what stroke they’re swimming.
