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.

-Felt like a slug. Not sure if its because I haven't swam since Thurs (when I did 10,200 SCY), being in the cold all day Saturday at the Bowl Game, or just sitting on my ass all day yesterday? But I had NO energy and the water was a bit too warm for my liking. They probably cranked it up cause ATL is in a real cold snap this week.
