In 2008. as a Team TBB rookie- rockfish I was wearing my pink fishy swim cap and hanging on the tail of the slowest lane. If accidentally (mostly by lack of attention), I made the front, just swung my fishtail till the girls swam over of my top. L

I repeated the trick in Hawaii, hanging on the very tail of the biggest pack jammed with our girls, Bella, Donna, Beck + few Big Fishes. Hooked up, I excited the water 4 minutes earlier than previous year!

Driven by the glory and chloride water in my head this year I rewarded myself with a new cap. Voila!

Here in Sun Di ego, swimming with Donna’s masters, I got choppy water all the time: the lane is filled with whales, turtles, dolphins. Like a polite (and frightened) shark I made the tail of the line again and felt very hungry to bite those is coming to train with fins on!

Regarding the newbie additions, I will make the slowest lane again…..but pay attention, count your toes before leaving the pool…
