Swim Quotes
Well, yesterday was our first practice with OLY Senior Blue. It was really crowded and I don't think the coaches were that happy. I saw Gregory, we had of course high five-ed. Um, practice wasn't bad there were just like 50 people in my lane. I'm not really sore, my back jsut kinda hurts, but its been bothering me lately. SARAH STIEL IS SWIMMING OLY!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so happy, cuz she really needs to cuz she is such an amazing swimmer!!! Maybe I'll see her around now.
So today I was looking online for a quote to possibly go on our swim sweatshirts. Here are some of my faves, they are all so good. Comments are in parenthesis.
- I feel more like I am now than I was before I dived in. (Sarah Stiel told me about this one, it's so cute)
- Swimming is more than a sport of the individual. It is the challenge of character, the strength of spirit, and the hope of the future."

- Race like you're in first
Train like you're in second - "Scrapes, blood, and bruises, I am now ready to race...'cause warm-up is over. Who ever said swimming was a gentle sport?...apparently they never had to endure a warm-up with 20 people per lane."
- "You know your a swimmer when im no longer means instant message."

- "My boyfriend said he's gonna break up with me if I keep blowing him off to swim everyday.....boy I am gonna miss him"
- "There's enough water in the pool already. Quit crying, put your head down and SWIM."

to report any problems call
1-800-my-coach - "Mattew, Mark, Luke, and Jon, Bless this pool we swim upon. As we swim we zip and zest. May we do our very best!"
