Usually half of the pool is occupied with Learn to Swim Lessons but this 4 week cycle there is no one registered for them so we have the whole pool to ourselves, everyone gets there own lane

5km today
lovely, lane to myself for most of it. Break for fuel at 3250m this time not 3000 - felt nicer to 'only' have 70 lengths to go after break.
That puts me up to 17.6km this week. If I am not too hungover Sunday I can do another 10km and blast my randomly thought up goal of swimming a half marathon over a week. haha
