Wednesday workouts
Hi all!
Well, I was in the pool at 6:00 a.m. and did 35 minutes of non-stop lap swimming. I did a few lengths using just my arms, no kicking, that is really a heck of an upper body workout! I could feel the five extra minutes, too...gonna keep doing that for the next few times, then ease up to 40 minutes.

I did 2.5 miles today and started on my annual rock wall building which substitutes for my weight lifting. Chiropractor tomorrow morning. Thanks to everyone for the compliments on yesterdays workout.

Rest day

Every morning in Africa , a gazelle wakes up.
It knows it must outrun the fastest lion or it will be killed.

It knows that it must run faster than the slowest gazelle, or it will starve.
It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle
when the sun comes up you'd better be running.
