While today was short on yardage, it was big on fun. I swam with two young women who’re around my speed (well, one is significantly faster, but needs to work her cardiovascular endurance. If she did that, she’d dust me more than she already does.) But it was fun...

Today was less than fun and very humbling. Perhaps if I were one of my fast swimmer friends, it would be different, but I’m not. So, I was the slowest (significantly slower) swimmer in the lane today and constantly felt like I was interrupting the others’ workouts....
