Coronado Training Camp
Well it's day 5 here and we have swum over 60,000 meters. Both Sherry and Igor have held up well. Sherry has been training very hard to be ready for her events at Pan Am's. Outside of the first practice when we arrived she has been swimming steadily over 7k per workout long course.
To entertain ourselves outside of the sunny training weather we have had "team dinners" with chef Mark, who has hit the jackpot in particular with the post morning workout breakfast. We all chip in and keep the kitchen clean. For those swimmers who remember the team hotel you will be disappointed to know the traditional breakfast offered at the hotel has been replaced with a healthy continental fare. Yes, no more honey buns or hostess cupcakes. The hotel has gone healthy. We also went to the renovated theatre the other day, trying to see Moneyball but that was sold out. So we saw 50/50 instead, where one of the three of us sobbed at the sad bits.
We head into the final preparation phase for Sherry as a week from today we head to the Games.
