One day before the meet starts...
Today, I had to work at registration for the last time, from
9am-12pm. At noon, the team headed to lunch at the Thirsty
Turtle. It took about an hour to get our food, then we
headed back to the pool to register and do an afternoon workout.
We were in the pool for about an hour, then I hit the coaches
meeting and we were off to Smoothie King. Smoothie King has been a beloved tradition at Y Nationals that's much-anticipated each year. Every trip to the pool is followed immediately by a trip to Smoothie King. The kids are only there once per year, but they're still able to fill up their frequent buyer card to receive a free smoothie...it's nice that the cards don't have an expiration, either, so their punches roll over from year to year. We've all had smoothies before, but the kids will tell you nothing beats the Smoothie King. After Smoothie King, we headed back to the hotel so the boys could shave. Keegan managed to nick himself up pretty good. The day got backed up with an extra long lunch and an extra long coaches meeting, so we didn't have time to have dinner in Annapolis as planned. Instead, we ordered pizza, played some cards, and shared embarrassing stories until bed time. The boys need to be resting in their rooms at 9:30pm each night and then lights out is at 10:00pm. Tomorrow is the biggest day of the meet, with each of the boys swimming at least one event. Ben and Murphy will swim the 50 Breast and then Ben and Keegan will swim the 50 Free. |
