To celebrate
What ? Longevity / boredom
Well, lets see, I'm swimming 30 minutes a day.
This started in 2005. My ten year window was to keep swimming or doing what I'm doing now ( i.e. 2005 )
I do 100 laps - give or take - b/c I lose count
Thus, I made the window
I came down doubting the streak would continue
The shoulder impingement was improving but occasionally I could feel the sting
However, the steady motion and warm water and even warmer hot tub, seem to be enough to quiet the irritation up there
So, I'm in the 2 % of Americans over 60 getting the minimum 21 minutes a day of exercise.
Who set the 21 minutes, I haven't a clue
The Surgeon General ?
I call my morning swim - the irreducible minimum - thus the Surgeon General and I agree
I actually, could swim a lot easier in the afternoon, I suppose everything is looser and I'd be awake
but the pool tends to be empty at 8:15 or so
The air may be 50 or 60 F but the pool is 82 or above
Run in swim and run out
And I've been wondering what to do about - now.
Have I started a new window ??
I've made no promises
But I'm still swimming
