Today is another tiring day, especially the swimming team practice. I've skipped practice for 4 weeks already, and today, we swam around 2500 meters. It was extremely tiring and there only were 6 people taht went. Jenny Tien and I were put in a group to swim at the same time. In the middle, she suddenly stopped and got on shore and said that she was going to throw up. I didn't and couldn't stop to help her, which I kind of regret not doing so now. Today most of the work was long-distances, which I am completely bad at, which made me even more tired comparing to if I could swim the same total distances but just in shorter distances each time. Although I felt and actually, am feeling, really tired with sore arms and legs, I still feel proud of myself, since it's the longest distance I've ever swam within a little more than an hour. I feel that I've accomplished something again. Frank said that from now on, each week would be more tiring than the previous week. Sitting in front of my computer, thinking about how tiring today's practice was, I'm starting to feel pressure towards the next practice. I wonder how tiring and how many meters we'll be swimming next practice. I want to improve, but as a normal person would hope, I don't want to be so tired.
