I went swimming this morning before work, it's the first time I've been in nearly two months, I wasn't expecting a lot. The pool wasn't too busy, I only had to intimidate a couple of idiots fanny around in the fast lane for a couple of lengths before they got the hint and buggered off to the slower lanes. It really annoys me people who get in the fast lane and then proceed to swim slower than the people in the slow lane, but enough of the rant.
I was totally knackered after warning up for only 250 metres; I've really lost most of my fitness over the Christmas break. In all I only managed 1650 metre as they called time four minutes early for some reason, which I and a couple of others were a bit miffed at. So it wasn't really the best of starts, but at least it was a start.
So now I just need to get regular again with trips on Wednesday and Friday, although I'm away next Monday, so we'll just have to hope we're into the swing of it enough by then.
On another note the first Triathlon in the Bedford Sprint Series is on the same day as our first baby is due. Now I know that you may a well ignore the due date as the baby is unlikely to make an appearance on that specific day, but it's a bit close to when the baby should make an appearance, which is a bit worrying. So I'm going to try and train like I'm still doing it and then hope that I can take part closer to the time...
