Started Monday morning with a great 5.5 mile run with my running buddy. She is getting to be a really good friend and I look forward to our runs together.
Monday night we took the kids to the pool so I could do my swim workout. Not a great idea.....ended up being really frustrated. The pool only has one lane open for lap swim during leisure hours (and it's a huge pool!). There were 8 people in the lane when I arrived and if it hadn't been for Travis pushing me, I would not have joined them. I went over and jumped in and started to attempt to swim. The first 500 was hard to get anywhere because I was swimming with people who had their heads out of the water and were dog paddling. Second and third 500 were better because it dwindled down to only 4 of us. I still had to pass in the middle but I worked through it. I started suffering from charlie horses in my foot and calf. That wasn't very fun. The last 500 was a joke. These two girls got in and pretended to swim laps. They would swim three strokes, then stop in the lane and do a deep-water bob, swim in the middle of the lane, not stop at the wall to let me pass, etc. I was really frustrated! Almost cut the workout short, but just decided to breast stroke and let it be. Grrrr......
