I
started the swim at 10:34. I thought, “Hmmm…if
I do this is under 26 minutes, I will finish before 11:00. Always good to have round numbers
involved. During the first 50 meters, I
needed to stop and adjust my goggles because they were leaking.
During the 2nd 50 meters, I had to
thread the needle between two other female swimmers who had entered the lane in
the middle of the pool and they were swimming side by side. So, I moved to the next lane. All of this maneuvering must have taken some
time. But…when I go to the halfway mark,
I had used up on only 13:17. If I was
going to break 26 minutes, I would have to swim the 2nd half, not
only under 13 minutes, but under 12 min. 43 seconds. I thought I was a nice dream, but not realistic.
What
an amazing result when I saw that I missed breaking the 26-minute mark by 2
seconds!! Wow!!
