Back in Boulder, I had a crazy German who would chastise and harass me constantly if I missed a workout or was late (see How to do it all.....: tuesday morning run/fight club). So, some of the time, my big motivation for getting out of bed to swim was not to get my interval whittled down by Wolfgang. If I was 5 minutes late, my 100m was on the 1:30, 10 minutes late 1:25, 15 minutes late ... well, let's just say I wouldn't even bother stopping at the wall for the entire workout, just kept flip-turning until I racked up a 3500m workout.
Addendum to previous post: I instead went swimming at lunch, with a lively masters bunch. I've not done that much fly in years and the coach was a figure to be reckoned with ...ruling the class with an iron fist. So much fun! I liked it.
Glad you liked the master's class, but the coach probabaly didn't have a German accent (the main reason I go swimming).
