Attitude:
I felt good swimming.  I hadn't been in the pool for a long time.  My buddy, Gabe, suggested trying some sprints so I did them just to switch it up.  I get sick of just going back and forth over and over.  My initial sprint speed was faster than I expected, but obviously I can't sprint for 0.34 miles.

The usual swim lessons at the pool were going on while I was there.  One kid cried the entire time.  It was hilarious how upset he was while his parents looked on with a mixture of disgust and embarrassment.  Parents should qualify for instant sainthood.
