8 Laps Swimming

Jacque and I signed up to do the Sugar Land Women's Tri on June 22nd. So this morning we met at the Aquatic Center pool so that we could figure out our time for the 300 meter swim. The pool was heated, but the outside temperature was 45 degrees and windy. The water was fine, but getting in and out was the killer. We thought each length was 50 meters, so we did 8 laps with a little break in between. Turns out the laps were only 25 yards or 22.86 meters, so we did a lot less than we thought. But that's OK, because I couldn't have done any more. We're guessing right now that our pool time will be around 12 to 13 minutes, although Jacque is a better swimmer than I am.
