So I started swimming lessons this week.
In the same pool that my almost-2-year-old niece will learn to kick and splash, I will be doing my best crawl, front and back.
Registering and actually showing up required a bit of courage…but not as much as I would've needed to return to Lake Couchiching.
I digress.
Last August, as many of you know I completed a try-a-tri triathlon. One of the best experiences of my life, compromised by the teeny threat of drowning or not finishing the swim. I was a self-admitted terrible swimmer who thought I could wing a 375 metre swim in open water. Silly girl. For a play-by-play, www.morethanatri.blogspot.com.
This year I'm taking responsibility and showing up every week (save for the two Mondays I'll be in a sunny locale!). I'm taking the instructor's critiques to heart and applying what I learn. Even though he is 21, I will take him seriously, I swear!
Look out K and E…this girl aint needing those water wings anymore!
Well, in 8 weeks I won't. Fingers crossed.
It's all in Maurizio's strong capable hands…haha
