Swimming. 25 laps (1,250 yards). This is just my third time in my life swimming laps. I feel like I have come a long ways since the first time doing it just a week ago. I'm starting to figure out the breathing rhythms and things. I'm starting to really enjoy this form of exercise.

You are brave. It took me about two months of swimming 3 times a week to figure out the breathing thing. I would get out of a pool so dizzy that I would almost tip over. Were you a bit injured this winter? Sorry I haven't stayed in touch.

Hey Fritz! I haven't had any major injuries lately, I just got tired of constantly being on the brink of injury and decided I wanted to try something new. I'm thinking of possibly trying a couple of triathlons in the late summer, early fall. I still have a long ways to go though with the swimming and the biking for that matter!
