so i thought it would be a smart idea to spill boiling water all over my foot when brewing tea (it wasnt), which put a fork in my Running training that ive been working hard at. So, since my job involves running a campsite on a beach on the Aegean Sea, I decided to swim laps for the hell of it.
I actually really like it a lot. I remember HATING swimming laps as a kid (my mom tried to have me swim competively for a bit, did not go well. but at least i did learn good form for all the strokes) so i thought i would ahte it now, but i actually really like it a lot. and since i am already in good shape (endurance wise) from running and pedicabbing, i did not get tired. I swam about an hr free style today and then did 20 minutes breast stroke. Over the weekend i am guessing i swam about 45 minutes freestyle in the sea, although i did not have a watch so who knows. Its nice to work my arms again, which really have no been used since i stopped dancing. and trying to convince myself that i want to do pushups is a losing battle.
Does anyone else on here swim for excersise? when my foot heals im going to return to running but i htink i am going to also try to improve my swimming. The goggles i have now are shit for keeping water out of my eyes. Im going to buy a new pair (any tips on how to get ones that fit would also be appreciated). Hopefully I can get some sweet ass biceps by the end of summer!
