Back for more training!

After a week in Peru and a 3 hour long hike up Waynapicchu (see picture) in Macchu Picchu, I was thrilled to be back in the pool yesterday.

I went to the late night training session for swimming, and was really pumped to be back in the water.  We were working on various skills including swimming without your hands (fists only), and really working on getting a correct stroke, and using our forearms.  Today, I'm sore.  I also possibly may have fractured my toe.  In the excitement of getting time to do 5 minutes continuous in the water, I was really pushing myself and may have kicked the barrier at the very end.  My pinky toe is blue today, and I'm hoping the pain goes away.

I'm feeling healthier than I did before Peru, and I think the hike is to thank! At some point I'll post some pictures from the hike to show you exactly how treacherous the rock stairs were!
