Swimming

I went swimming this morning in the pool at the Gym..I haven't swam in about 2 years..
I nearly drowned after about 1 1/3 of a length. Much to the amusement of an onlooker.
It took me nearly 2o minutes to regain my technique enough to swim one poxy length without stopping..
Mind you I can now run for 30 minutes without stopping..
I just that i'd share that with you guys !!
swimming is a great form of exercise especially for you old folk as theres no pressure on any of you joints. Much better than running.
As much as I love mtb if a had my own pool I don't think I would ever get out of it. I love swimming, sinking to the bottom and just laying there. Lengths underwater, the silence and calm. There is nothing like it. I stayed at a posh hotel once in St Thomas that had an outdoor pool with an infinity line, stunning, it was like being in a womb with a view.
Hay Byrner, fancy trying that running malarky next sunday at Punchestown? Dualathon... 3.2k run / 20k bike / 3.2k run.
Oooooh I hate running, so boring, I went for a run along the N11 once, terrifying, I kept having to jump the Armco into the bushes, and if you have man boobs well then forget it.
I don't have manboobs..I have pecs !!
Be warned if I get good at the running, I'm off to triathlons !! or adventure racing.
I can't swim in swimming pools don't know why, probably psychological, I can swim in the sea though, probably because if you stop you die.
Byrner you know what you're experiencing is the graw to return to your old hillrunning ways. So get yourself on over to Howth on the 18th for the 1st race of the winter league.
what is it with the 18th..
I AM RUNNING A INTERCLUB XC RACE IN DJOUCE THAT DAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So you say now. By then you might have changed your mind. The subtle but inevitable draw of a hillrun is adding further confusion to your Lemsip-fuddled brain.... ;-)
right..
i'm walking along throwing digs..if you get in the way its your own fault !!
