Swimming is so fun!

 As I made my way into the swimming lane ready to swim a few laps, I smiled.  I forgot how much I loved swimming!  I forgot how freeing it is.

I wanted to push myself and swim laps until exhausted or my heart beat funny…well more than usual.  After all in the lane next to me there was a man looking to be about 70, swimming like he was in a race.  I listened to my body and stopped after 4 laps.  Even I acknowledge if my defibrillator went off while I was swimming, it would not be good.

I then wandered around and found the walking pool area. I was disappointed at how slow it was but reminded myself it is not a race.  I simply need to exercise and get my cardio in.  

I really don’t like exercising.  My treadmill usually has to be dusted off whenever I do choose to walk on it.

I’m excited I decided to join the aquatic center.  I’m actually excited to go everyday.  I might get into better shape after all so recovery isn’t so difficult.
