Day 46 - Y Swim?

This Swim...

Isn't going well.

I've been used to being outside in FL not inside a YMCA that houses 5 lanes.

I need to get used to this but today I am clearly not.

It also is tough to keep eyes off you when you are the only one at the pool that is under the age of 80.

This makes me immediately self-conscious about my lack of swimming ability.

There's an open lane available and I toss down my bag, grab my flippers, and start my kick work.

Today is a short session, around 1000 yards, but for some reason I just can't get in a rhythm.

Maybe it's the cold water, maybe it's the eyes on me, or maybe it's that I just don't want to be doing this today.

I struggle through my reps, frustrated as I do. My breathing taking a step back today.

After about 30 minutes I'm done and ready to leave.

I get out of the pool and head in to change.

Defeating day today...
