Just a short update.
Since returning from vacation, I’ve struggled with the exhausting symptoms of a cold and that has kept me from the pool. Well I was in the pool today. The water felt calming and soothing, my muscles pulsed with each stroke. I swam just a kilometre today, and it was a slow swim – it took me 41 minutes. My passion for this exhilarating activity was renewed and a sense of purpose overcame me. The quiet, calm of the water, the breaths of air being expelled, watching my arms push back the water and feeling the strength in my legs as I kicked thru each length of the pool.
Tomorrow I will head to the gym to work all the other muscles, under the guidance of my son, my Personal Trainer. I’ll be back in the pool next week. My pool swimming goal is to complete 1250 metres at each swim.
Thank you for reading, Joye.
