Swim Swim Swim

The IWU Cycling and Triathlon Club is doing an event called Swim Across Indiana. The teams of up to five people that will try to swim enough laps between the team to either swim north to south (283 miles) or east to west (153 miles). I couldn't convince my team to go to north to south, so I decided to try to test myself in a different way. I want to try to swim the east to west by myself. My miles will count towards my team but after my team crosses the finish line I'm going to keep tracking my yardage. I have eight weeks (the start of the semester until spring break) to log about 19.1 miles a week (or about 2.75 miles each day). I think I should be able to do this without too much of a problem because I'm only taking 8 credits this semester (it's all I need to graduate with my BSN). My goal is to eventually work up to swimming 28-miles in one week.

Inbetween all my swimming I've been trying to find a job for after school. So far I've applied to about 15 or 20 jobs in the Louisville area and have posted my resume on www.monster.com. I'm hoping to land a couple interviews over spring break and secure a job. Once I get that taken care of, I think I'll start hitting the books for the N-CLEX. Oh... the dreaded N-CLEX!
