Today I tried the swim drills that Anne has prescribed. I went to Lifetime Fitness only to find that the outdoor pool was jam-packed full. Three lanes were occupied by kids (training) and the others had at least two people each. The indoor pool was closed because someone “accidentally forgot to chlorinate it.” I wonder how Lifetime would feel if I “accidentally forgot to pay my bill!” Needless to say, while Lifetime Fitness is a decent gym, it is pricey; and they are FAR from perfect.
Anyway, after waiting for about 30 minutes, I finally got in and did about 700 meters drills and then did an easy swim for another 150 meters. That was my whole workout today. Not much!
I’m getting excited about my upcoming triathlon in Malibu. I saw last year’s video with all their celebrities. The only one I recognized was Sanjay Gupta of CNN. The others were from shows like the office, two and a half men, the finder, etc. etc.; but I have no idea who they are (Ellie Kemper, Geoff Stults, Rainn Wilson, etc.). I’m just happy that Chrissie Wellington will be there. I can’t wait to see her!
