I need to grab “The Wake” from the library and I’m done. Not a big fan of this series and I’ll be glad to be done.

I’m not really following a plan for this anymore, but I recently did 60 of them in a row. So, I think for now I’ll just continue to work on push ups and then see how many I can do. I just don’t feel like following the plan. :)
I’m looking through my goals and I see this is still on there and realized I’ve taken no steps to knock out this goal since I posted about it five years ago.
Holy crap.
And, I don’t know what to say about this. I went to the pool a couple of months ago when I was in Texas (where every day is 100 degrees…or, 60 consecutive days are) and I swam.
Seriously. It was some sort of modified breast stroke, but it worked. And holy crap does swimming use a different set of muscle and endurance than running.
But, I don’t want to mark this as accomplished yet. I want to be able to swim better. A friend her said she’d teach me because she wants me to do a triathlon with her in the spring, which I can’t do because it’s a drill weekend, but still.
I swam, but I really want to feel like I can swim.
