By Cassidy Lavigne, Swimming World College Intern
I hear my alarm screaming at me as I roll out of bed and open my eyes to turn off the clock flashing the time: 5:30 a.m. It is pitch black outside; I am half awake as I splash cold water on my face and the bathroom light strains my eyes. I put on my swimsuit, and then the pajamas I was just wearing, and I grab my bags for school and for water polo. I’m going to water polo practice: morning conditioning.
As I walk onto the pool deck and dive into the water, the what ifs and constant overwhelming issues packed in extra emotional baggage fall off of me. The arguments shared by my parents, the daily stress of academics and having a successful future are muted. In the pool, I am in my most peaceful environment both physically and mentally. Because my head is silent, I am in my sanctuary. I focus on what matters: my coach, my teammates, and how I will fight through the next swim set.
