For those of you who don't know, I swim
just today me and jeff were going to go to the make-up time trials(he didnt do his and i had to swim breaststroke).
Our Coach, Nathan, said we just HAD to do IM
Direct quotation: "[Kevin and Jeffrey] should do IM because there are only 4-5 13/14 people who are doing IM and they are not always gonna be around, so for the team and a personal favor to me please swim it." Or somthing like that but you get the point
my thoughts:
-IM is not my forte
-I can't swim butterfly for my life
-I don't like IM
-why is he making me do this
-why is everyone else joining in on jeering us to do it
My response: "Nathan, for a personal favor for you and the team, you should PREVENT me from swimming IM at all costs because I WIlLL let the team down, I WILL not do good, and doing good IS actually the most important factor in the swim meet as it earns us more points."
Now I know at least 3/4 of you people will call me a coward and I respect that so DON'T
for those of you who swim, I'm inferior to all of you so bear with me. |
