Slept like a baby!

I've made some adjustments to my schedule and now I use the treadmill to run for 1 mile. My goal is to run 1 mile in less than 12 minutes. Afterwards, I go directly to the pool to start working out. My only problem is the water's PH, I can't see a dang thing because I keep forgetting to take my goggles. I've made sure I have them for tonights practice. It's a lot of work and things seem so slow right now. I have so much work to do. I didn't even bother to attempt butterfly because my arms are not strong enough to carry my body weight at this time. Plus, butterfly stroke takes a lot of strength in which I just don't have right now. Currently, I have way too much body fat to pull. That's the reason, I'm having such a difficult time with freestyle at the moment. As usual, my winner of all the strokes, my savior of all time was backstroke. Last night I was able to complete at least 2x100 yards. My goal tonight is to shoot for 3x100 yards. I remeber in swim practice we always started with 10x100 yards. Afterwards, we would do 5x100 freestyle, then 5x100 backstroke, and 5x100 breast-stroke. Compared to now that seems like a whole lot of work. All I can do is work at it. My first goal is to reach 10x100 free-style and get my turns under control.
