Swimming!

Our pool is finally open, and we had our first opportunity to do lap swim tonight. I did AWESOME! The year before last, I started out at 1/2 a lap, period. Last year I started out at two, and I had to rest in between. This year I did two consecutive with no rest, and then FOUR MORE with small rests in between! Oh yeah! I ROCK! And even then I had to stop because of my muscles, not my cardiovascular fitness. Isn't that COOL?!

That's funny, my lungs always give out before my muscles when I swim. Good for you strong lungs lady!

What do you consider a lap? Is is there AND back? I was trying to figure this out when I was swimming a few days ago.

i consider a lap one way. one end of the pool to the other. and i've been working on the heart health hardcore for so long, it's nice to see that it IS improving!!
