PRACTICE SWIM #1


This is what I looked like today going to practice swim#1. "Scuba Steve" Just kidding. I did get a swim cap, goggles, and ear plugs. I just worked on my back float with the flutter kick. No arms involved yet. I went 10 laps but do not know the length of the pool. But neither did my gym so I guess it wasn't a stupid question. My legs were pooped by the time I finished so that was it for the day. I was glad that I did not have any motion sickness again-I want so bad to do this.

Last night I did make it to spin class. It wasn't my favorite Mary but it was a good workout. I haven't figured out any training plan so I'm just winging it one day at a time for now.

WEDS: Spin : 60 min.
THURS : Swim? : 30 min.

Waddling like Scuba Steve...................

Yay you. How's the dizziness? Ear plus help?

The lap pool, "laps only pool" (not those lanes they place sideways in the pee, er, kid pool) are 25 meters one way at our LTF gym.

Glad the dizziness didn't return. (I don't know what my problem is, however.) And just keep at the swimming. Give yourself time--you have lots of it. Its just like everything else, it takes time to know what you're doing and more time to feel like you are getting better, but it comes eventually.

Ha!! You are really into the good gear now; cool bike, cool swimming stuff...you are all cool.

I predict a plan will emerge at you get a handle on all this!

Yeah! You are IN the water, and now you can get all comfortable in the water and then the REAL fun starts!
(Swimming on my back makes me dizzy..so I don't!) Go figure!
