When I first went back to the gym I could do 1 length at a time, stopping at either end to avoid sinking in a breathless lump. 6 weeks later I am regularly doing 110 lengths without stopping. I don't think that makes me 110% more than Brian. The pool is only 18m long, but it's a great feeling. I can understand Brian's enthusiasm and I never thought I'd say that!Cherrypiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01601809750914618402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20035630.post-1170181112596359722007-01-30T12:18:00.000-06:002007-01-30T12:18:00.000-06:00does a wicked dog-paddle count : ) lindalewdoes a wicked dog-paddle count : ) lindalewAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20035630.post-1170170488846755272007-01-30T09:21:00.000-06:002007-01-30T09:21:00.000-06:00Uh huh..and how many babies has Brian delivered?.....Uh huh..and how many babies has Brian delivered?...<BR/>I thought so...now do the math.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20035630.post-1170095361336115512007-01-29T12:29:00.000-06:002007-01-29T12:29:00.000-06:00Can I laugh out loud?

You see what happens when you show up at the pool looking like you want to be there? They think that you can do some lengths- JUST FOR WARM-UP.joycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10269164806627544548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20035630.post-1169993639412806202007-01-28T08:13:00.000-06:002007-01-28T08:13:00.000-06:00I started a stroke development class a few weeks a...I started a stroke development class a few weeks ago (don't really know what I was thinking on that one). Anyhow, when my sister and I got there, the teacher said, "OK, let's warm up with a couple of lengths and then we'll begin class!"
