Swimming

I found a pretty good and affordable masters program 12 minutes from my house. I've been to practice twice in the past two days (Thursday night and Friday morning).

Things I like about swimming:
  • actually being competent at a sport
  • the endorphins
Things I forgot I hated about swimming:
  • the smell of chlorine
  • the bathing suit hickeys
Things I lost after not swimming for 3 years:
  • my massive shoulder muscles (it was awesome not looking like a man, but I forgot how much you do use them in swimming
  • my arm muscles (as someone who depends greatly on arm muscles for propulsion, it sucks when you don't have them)
