On my way to a Monday morning rehearsal, I drove across Fort Patrick Henry Lake. The sun was shining on the calm, glistening water. My mind jumped into the water as I imagined what it would be like 5 months from now swimming 2.4 miles in the Tennessee River. I went from nervous [that is a VAST body of water!] to curious [what will the sky look like on the morning of September 28th?] to excitement [ I get to swim in one of God’s swimming pools and I won’t even have to change directions!].
Later that day, feeling a bit apprehensive, I swam my first full mile in a long time. Mary lapped me a few times, and Lizzy got in a good 20 some odd laps!
