First Dip in the Pool

Today I finally got myself into the pool to expand my limited exercise as of late. I haven't swam laps since China (August!). My body has been craving a bit more mobility. Walking is walking, and really quiet boring, and I just don't seem to get my whole body into it. My arms, back, neck and waist have been longing for some movement. Swimming is a funny sport because it is hard to know how hard your pushing it, unless you have a swimmer next to you and you know how fast they are going, or the more obvious, when you are out of breath. I took the conservative road today, swam slow and topped out at 15 minutes. I would like to add on to this, as previously I have felt a cheater to not do a full mile swim. Here's to many more laps, and water babies!
