Day 365 - Lifeguards

Well in the past two weeks I have seen a number of life guards, some just sit there, some walk around the pool, some stand and chat with the swimmers and so on.  So talking with one of the lifeguards I told her that it was very disconcerting having to swim uphill all the time.  She stopped turned around and looked at the pool.  "I think it is level, maybe a little tilted - is it, wow I never realized that before."

The only thought that went through my head at the time was your going to save me if I am drowning?

So I have swum 11 days in the last three weeks, and I wanted to do 5 days a week, so I am off a day, plus I am not improving as quickly as I expected.  We want immediate results, or at least enough that I can say I am improving a little, but my hundred time is exactly the same.  Maybe even a little slower.  Well maybe I should do five days.

This is how I got fat in the first place.  I am obsessive compulsive and I have an on and off switch.  At least this is a healthy on switch.

  1. You should join Brisbane AND allow TSH and Taya to come along - we need the walk time!

    Good B/Day resolution for tomorrow - start MINIMUM of 4 swims/week PLUS one additional SWIM or HEAVY DUTY exercise!

    Go T3!

    Happy last day of a "non-prime" age date!
