Wednesday Evening Update
Well - today's been a busy day!
Not content with doing a run at stupid o'clock, I followed it up with a swim. Now - the only slight fly in the ointment was that there qas an aqua-aerobics class starting at 12, so I dashed down to the pool rather sharpish. I'd decided (following the 2/4 of a mile the previous time) to go for a full mile, as I hadn't done that for ages. That meant 80 lengths of the 20m pool. I broke it up with sessions in the sauna, as to be honest, I find it boring!
Anyway, the first 60 lengths went fine, but around quarter too, the pool started to gill up with older peeps, who were just standing round chatting at random points in the pool, making it like a bliddy obstacle course! This continued as the time drew on past ten to, and rings of grannies nattering formed as well. The few of us trying to swim lengths were havign a real battle. I did keep going until the 80 mark, but was glad to get out. I'm sure I swam the other nine metres easily avoiding people - why can't they just stay out of the pool if all they're going to do is chat?
I had a sleep after that, and then back down the gym in the evening for a body pump session, which I really enjoyed. I kept the weights down slightly but even so came out sore. Good to be back doing that again :oD
