At my yearly physical last week a funny thing happened. The doctors staff informed me that swimming is not an aerobic exercise and that I would be better off walking briskly for 20 to 30 minutes a couple days each week.
I explained I try to swim 2 to 3 times each week for 60 to 90 minutes,and my workout is prepared by MO, ya'll might recognise that name. They asked me the distance I cover in that time and I responded with 2800 to 3500 yards or 1.5 to 2 miles depending on time.
Not good enough according to the staff. I should be walking. I will let the facts stand for themselves.

Well it is off to the pool for another MO workout. Maybe I will walk briskly from my car to the pool and see if that counts. Thanks for those workouts MO I enjoy them.
Have a great day

As someone born in the 'Burgh and raised in western PA, this discussion is making me hungry. Nothing is better than a Primanti Brothers sandwich!:cool:
They have been there for years - my Dad used to work nearby and went there for lunch a whole lot. Would have been early 60's. As I understand it, at the time they were open from very early morning (3am ish) until about 2pm in the afternoon - yes to serve the drivers coming to the strip.
I go there any time I am in the area. I now live in the Philly area and love the cheesesteaks (Pats, Jims, Ginos, Tony Lukes), but they don't compare to a Primanti Brothers sandwich.
