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

My inclination would also be to move to a much smaller city than Houston.
LOL, That's Thomasville
it will have to be someplace where snow days off from school are at least an annual occurance
We have hurricane days, not snow days, does that count? (We use to get off for Rose Show Parade too)
See, if there was a Master's club here we could have a 'Swim for the Roses' meet during Rose Show weekend.
