I got up early enough this morning to shave all the appropriate things in order to hit the pool this afternoon. But I got hung up a little at the office helping the surveyor fix an easement description (I really should have drawn the easement centered on the sewer instead of offset by 2'). I was really tight on time and briefly thought about skipping my workout, but decided to suck it up and swim (SUAS). I decided that I would knock out 1000 yards come hell or high water.
I fought my way across town, ran into the ARC, stripped and put on my suit in record speed and headed to the lap lanes. I did 20 laps (1000 yards) in about 25 minutes (yes, I know I am slow), jumped right back out, dressed while still basically dripping wet and dashed out the door in order to get home with 6 minutes to spare in leaving to take my daughter to her piano lesson. Speed limits may or may not have been violated.
I felt a twinge in my ankle the first lap or so, but that quickly subsided (though I probably didn't kick as hard after that). Will have to continue low impact exercise this week. Crossing my fingers I can take a short bike ride tomorrow afternoon. Temps aren't supposed to be all that bad, but 50% chance of rain. Luck be on my side!
