Swimming: a remarkably inefficent means of getting from A to B
I went swimming yesterday for the first time in 15 or 16 years. It’s not how I remember it. I remember it being easy. Effortless, even. Yesterday, however, I simply splashed about in a desperate attempt to keep my head above water. Just hauling myself from one end of the pool to the other seemed to take an age. I used to be good at this stuff, dammit. Now I just ache.
With enough practice, though, I might at least regain some kind of fitness. Provided I can maintain the motivation, that is...
I took my 2yr old daughter swimming on Sunday, and I almost stole her armbands.
I do a perfect rendition of a brick.
Having said that, I was more worried about people viewing my fatness than drowning, so i was quite happy to stay submerged =P
