I realized recently that I am turning 40 this year. I really hadn't put that much thought into the whole thing until I realized that I am really out of shape. I used to swim a lot and I have always enjoyed it, however due to life and laziness I have failed to stay swimming.
I would like to get into that swimming shape again. I know that as you get older it just gets harder. But, I feel that this is probably the best workout for my body and the fact that once I am in the water (getting to the pool, I find is the hardest thing) I enjoy the work out.
My problem is that I want instant gratification. I want to be able to do 3000+ in the first week and when I can barely do 1000, I become disillusioned.
Any ideas, thoughts, etc.?

The summer after I turned forty, I had five operations and wore an oestomy bag for six months. I tell peole that from the stomach on, I'm really an inch worm. Somehow this year I'm going to turn 47. It is truly amazing that I can swim!
