Back in the pool

Well, it's that time. End of another year spent overweight and out of shape. I'm done with this body. Time to go back into the pool. This time I will stick with it. Gonna follow the "zero-to-1 mile in 6 weeks" plan and go from there. Hard to believe I was an "A" swimmer circa 1983. :D Wish me luck....

    Hmmm - now I will have to put on my thinking cap to see if I can come up with a suggested team name. Webbed Hands is good. I am continuing on with the 0 to one workouts and did the first day of week #5 yesterday. It wasn't easy --- but I did it :applaud: if indeed slowly:snore: . I had a few "Resolutioners" to fit around as well, but was there early enough to get at least half my time in a lane to myself. Funny, but it makes me want to get back in the pool today! But I am trying to NOT do two of the same sports in a row (I also bike/spin, weight train, and try:dunno: to walk/jog) in an effort to avoid injury such as shoulder issues! My most difficult thing is to convince myself that a day of rest is a GOOD thing! I need some :help: from you guys to encourage me to take one day off a week -- I am (and have been for a very long time) OBSESSED about these things! I'm rambling so will stop!!! Nancy
