I was excited to try a new pool on Sunday... it was at Pine Grove and Addison, so really not too far from home and right off LSD.
I guess I should've asked the size of said pool... it was only 15 meters. To anyone that swims, you understand immediately that this is not an awesome lap pool when your workout has you swimming closet to 4,000 yards. Let's just say I got a lot of flip turn practice!!
I had to swim multiple 1,000 which in a normal pool is about 40 lengths of the pool.... this was considerably more lengths and super boring.
It also did not have any pull buoys, so I held some sort of water dumbbell between my legs that sort of helped them float as I dragged by body through the water.
After this one, I treated myself to 8 minutes in the steam room! Also in hopes that some of the chlorine that now makes up my DNA would seep out of my pores!
The natural light from the skylight was actually really nice and would have been even better had it been a sunny day. I can't complain about that!!
