I made it!

I started this blog by saying that I wanted to swim for three weeks straight before I made a decision regarding whether or how often to continue. Today was an awesome experience.

The workout was fast-paced and tough. We did 26x 75meters on a decreasing inteval. After five or so my lane mates and i put on fins to be able to make the interval. There was a time during the 20th or 21st where I thought I might really get sick. Fortunately that passed and we were able to do it. On the last set we were coming in right on the send off for the next.

We swam a total of 1950meters (1.2 miles) at a pretty good clip.

It was very difficult but man it felt great afterward (more so emotionally than physically). I wouldn't have dreamed three weeks ago that I could have done a workout like this.I can really feel a big difference in my shoulder and torso muscles. They are feeling thick and toned.

I am feeling great about swimming and ready to continue it. I think every day is working well for me at this point.

I took this on thinking that I needed an exercise routine- I didn't expect it to be so great.

See ya next week- I am going to sleep in.
