Ready..VENT! What keeps you from getting to the pool?

Ready..VENT! What keeps you from getting to the pool? Me first. I am so bummed. Traffic was all jammed up because of an accident and oil spill on the expressway. It took me 2 hours and 10 minutes to get home. That's a 10 mile drive. I could have run faster if they let me take a straight line on the highway. I sat and peeled and ate an orange without even creeping forward. And not one of those tangelos or zipper peel kinds. Thank goodness I had snacks. I certainly didn't think to visit the ladies room before I left work. Normally even in the worst of traffic it's less than an hour. I couldn't even get off the highway because all the exits were jammed because the city was blocked up because people couldn't get on the highway. And I thought traffic was going to be wasy because of school vacation week. I work full time and go to school part time. That ate up all my swimming time for the evening. I went to work and left work early to get in some good pool time tonight. Blech. Your turn...NEXT!

  • Anyhoo, my 5 mile run this morning seemed like a warm up. Off to try this "Ultimate Conditioning" class - I'll be surprised if this is actually the case. There's no exercise like swimming! Although running is not as horrible as I once thought! Blech for eye infections, (S)he-Man! I've been on acular for a week ... I haven't resorted to vigamox yet. Can you never, ever swim? Or are you just cutting way back? I think you'll get hooked on running. It's addictive too. Just don't ramp it up too fast. Will there be any tris or road races in your future? :groovy: Feisty: I had this separation thing with my kids. It's partially why there was no swimming for so many years. It's really hard to work out regularly with young kids ... For awhile, I went to the gym at 9:00 pm when they were asleep.
