#swimmer problems

When you come back from a long break and you feel like an overcooked noodle in the water.

One time I had to swim the 200 free, 200 fly, and 400 IM all twice in one day and that is also the story of when I diED

Aries: Sprints warmup and then dies during the main set.

Taurus: Actually knows what the set is.

Gemini: Spends the first 15 minutes of every practice talking to the coach just to get out of doing warm up.

Cancer: Cries when coach explains main set.

Leo: Won’t let you go in front, even when you touch their feet.

Virgo: Actually finishes each set without cheating

Libra: Try’s to argue with the coach about the main set.

Scorpio: Always the first one in the water.

Sagittarius: Actually believes that they are going to make the Olympics.

Capricorn: The only one that can keep track of the interval.

Aquarius: Floats at the back of the lane during practice but is still really fast.

Pisces: Constantly sitting on the wall with some unique excuse.

Whoever decided that the mile or the 400 IM should be events obviously never swam them

Whoever decided that people 13 and over couldn’t swim 50s in meets is a cruel person

When you try to say something on the wall in the middle of a hard set and all that comes out is “nhfffhfzsssfgghzfghhvc”

“It wansn’t that bad. I mean I added 2 seconds to my best time, but I dropped 3 seconds from 2 weeks ago.”

I don’t like swimming
I really don’t like swimming
I don’t like swimming

We all complain about pools being too cold, but deep down we know it’s better than if it were too hot
