Start of long course season 2009

Well, swimming starts back up for Rachel in 2 days. I am really excited about who her coach is going to be! Her primary coach last season (Lyndsay) was really good and understood Rachel pretty well, and Coach Marti is excellent, too. From looking at the schedule, it appears that Rachel will have practice 5 days most weeks instead of 4. And I'm sure the practices will be more intense! We'll see how it goes....
