Friday at dive practice Greg Louganis joined us. Friday is a little more laid back and since I'm the only person on dive team, Coach Jose jumps in with me on Fridays. We try to one up each other. This past Friday, Greg joined in on the fun. Greg had recently dropped a 100+ lb. weight on his leg and it bruised it right above the knee. So he warned us in advance he was only going to do lineups... okay, even with an injured leg it was still no contest. Talk about the ultimate one-upper! Good grief! It was amazing to see him dive. He's so great!
I went to practice today and it was back to the more serious working on the list. It was a good day of diving for the most part. I had one good smack where my legs hit pretty hard. I'm not sure why it turned out this way, but they looked like candy canes. It was red, then a white stripe in the middle--and on each leg. That's a lot of red and white stripes going on. It was kind of funny.
I worked on a 1-1/2 back dive pike. I was able to go in on my head all three times. It's still not very pretty, but I'm hoping I'll be able to clean it up this week.
I was bad on my diet this weekend. I enjoyed dessert way more often than I should've--but on the plus side, I didn't full on binge. I was at 179.9 today, which was awesome to get back into the 170s--albeit barely! But this week I should be able to shed a few more pounds and get back under 175.
