OK, back at the gym with a vengeance! Body needed the whirlpool after last week's exertions, so actually went on Saturday. Did weight training first, because no workout = no spa.

Today, weights again, then swam a mile, almost all freestyle. Felt good. Did it in six faster sets of 300 rather than continuous with a one-two minute rest/stretch between sets. (300 was the prereq/warm up each day for the lifeguard course and I wanted to se what if felt like without the varsity swimmers making the pool all choppy and leaving me in their wake) Felt good -different, but good.
