early morning

I did make it to the pool, and for the first time managed to keep track of my laps well sort of - I know I swam at least 50 - I may have lost a couple of laps here and there in the count though. I had a half of lane to my self which was really nice. The other woman in the lane swam very fast, but I held my own. I usually include 8 laps of running in the water. In Australia I swam regularly at a pool with the Australian Rules Football team the Hawthorne Hawks. The couch would have them do the 50 yard pool half a lap of running in the shallow end and half a lap of swimming in the deep end for like 30 laps. It really works out your muscles and someone like me who doesn't run can.

Anyway I was just finishing up lap 7 of my run when the lifeguard told me some one complained that I wasn't actually swimming. I assured her I was on my last lap and finished up the 8th. Its sad cause my calves weren't burning like they were last week and I probably could have ran a couple more. Anyway for the next 20 minutes as I swam I just was pissed. I was in no way interrupting anyone else's workout, and I know it wasn't the woman in my lane. If I had my guesses I'd say it was the only man in the medium speed lane who couldn't make eye contact with me after we both got out. If it was him, or who ever it was I hope they have a really bad day. "May the fleas of a thousand camels infect their armpits."

Off to get an oil change
