-I'm really worn out between the first week back of working in 8 months and getting up early (5:20) to go workout. Its gonna take some time to get back into the flow of workouts, work, and family life!
This is a blog I created in August 2008 to keep up with my progress back in the swimming world. Prior to the Summer of 2008 I haven't really done a swimming workout in 15 years when I was about 75 lbs. lighter! My main motivation is for the health benefits and having something to train towards....but really there are SO many other benefits.
