Swimming My Way to Fitness

Have I have mentioned how much I love to swim? Now that I've started back in earnest, I wonder how I went 5 years without doing it. How did I go so long without joining the LRRC? I just don't know. I love how relaxed the water makes me feel. I love how I can get a great workout without feeling so tired, like I do after running. And even though I'm not the fastest person in the pool, I think I was made to swim. It's relatively easy for me, whereas other forms of exercise have always been a struggle. I only wish I had done it as a teenager. I think I really might have been decent at it.

Yesterday I swam 1500 meters again. It was a good swim. I was probably a little bit tired, but it wasn't difficult to complete the distance.
