I finally made it back to the pool

I did manage to swim yesterday. I didn't want to. I even attempted to sabotage myself by leaving my purse in the lab - which I realized upon arrival at the gym (but I was good trooper; I retrieved it and walked all the way back). In the end, I had a good and enjoyable work out. The only annoying thing was a man with bad swim etiquette in my lane. He was going slower than me, so much that often at the end of a lane I'd be standing or treading water behind him and he would just turn and go - instead of waiting there for two seconds so I could go ahead. So, I'd have to pass him, which is fine because it's good practice but annoying because our lane was crowded and the problem could have been so easily avoided. ANYWAY, I swam 1,000 yards and then did 4 25yd sprints (with 25 yd cool-down for each) and then a 100 yd cool down. I know the sprints are wimpy but I gotta start somewhere! And besides, it's hard to do anything longer in a crowded lane.

So, today I'm hoping to take the jogging stroller out after work and tomorrow I want to do the bike route (on the bike, of course). It's supposed to have killer hills. Great.
