How do others here get to do their work and good workouts at the same time? I usually train about 4000 yards a day but at the moment I have too much work where I need to concentrate. I often work until early in the morning. I work in animation so my work is always sitting down at my animation desk and computer.
I have to admit that I have a lot of work and if I'd do my swimming now I would get too tired at some point, so I took a break from swimming(and gained 10 lbs during this time:( )
I know I'll lose the weight as soon as I hit the pool again but also I will get less work done because I'll be drained.
How do others do it?

A lot of interesting answers. I go to a gym with a 25 yard pool when I usually swim. The odd thing is that my old swimming club is in the 25 m. pool across the street where I live. They've been renovating this pool(total new construction) for ages(at least two years!!)
Last night I could see many lights on with construction workers doing some sort of last touch ups but it looks like the whole pool is almost finished and might re-open soon. That would mean just crossing the street. It doesn't get any more convenient than that(except if you have your own pool. My secret dream).:D
Good luck! BTW, my cousin is also in the animation business here in ATL. He used to work on Cartoon Network (Dexter's Laboratory and others). Now he free lancing I believe.
Animation is what got me into swimming in the first place. When you animate you are often hunched over your animation desk drawing in a tense position all day. When I just started out in animation a couple of colleagues would always go during lunch time because swimming is the best relief for your back. One friend convinced me to go along. I was mainly a cyclist until then but all of a sudden I was hooked.
