-Definintely feeling better today, physically and in the water. Will be back up to 5000K yards per workout next week.
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.

Monday- October 26, 2009
Been sick since last Thursday so I'm pretty much laying low. Lots of sinus congestion, runny/stuffed nose, no energy. Gonna maybe try to get the pool tomorrow at lunch time for a short/easy 3000 SCY. Its been a week since I've been in.
Check back soon, hopefully I'll be up and running (literally and figuratively)
