First Day In A Pool
Gavin Lee
We have been out of the water since the beginning of Shelter In Place. Normally, we swim everyday. So, the last 7 months have been rough to say the least. However, today was glorious!
We were invited to use a private pool this afternoon. Not knowing what to expect, we were prepared to take a dip in a “backyard” pool. We were pleasantly surprised to find that it was sizable and in a beautiful location! Thank you so much Margaret!
As this was our first swim after all this time, we had no workout goals! We were there to enjoy the water and take it all in. We did manage a little stationary swim with the stretch cord and some vertical kick. This was a perfect way to begin to feel the water again. We came to a sad realization of how out of swimming shape we’re in, and how stiff we’ve become after months of dryland training only.
Although we currently do not know when or where our next swim will be, it will be wonderful! … L&G
