The Pool won today

Driving home after work today I spent the drive home debating how much better a nap would feel than spending 40 minutes doing laps. I have to say even though I am driving through perfectly beautiful SoCal winter afternoon, my pillow and blankets were very tempting.

As I approached the deciding moment I made the left turn and went to the gym. Once in the water I felt great and started pulling water. 41 minutes later, a PR, I wasn't so tired anymore. Today is a good day.

    i used to feel the same way.... although i don't really work. After spending a day chasing my three toddlers (yeah i know, im crazy) i just never used to want to go do a workout. And then: I met the pool! it actually feels great to hop in that nice cool water! i started with 30 minutes and now i have worked my way up to 75! and the added bonus is... you're right there by the hot tub, so it's kind of a waste to just leave after your swim :P

    CONGRATS! you won this battle in the war on weight!
