Busy day today! Went for a 6 k ....yes you read that right, 6, along the innocent railway and round passed Holy Rood High then back to Eilidhs dance class, took about 40 mins, ish, but that includes having to wait at traffic lights, so I was pleased. That's the longest I've run for ages! Back home for some lunch then I had to taxi Eilidh back to her next class. When I got back I had 15 mins until I had to get to the pool as it now shuts at 4.40. But I started to nod off, I was so tired! Just as I was drifting off, Sir Smuggleton jumped up and said, get off your backside and into the pool. It was a struggle, but a huge victory over slovenliness!! I managed to do 32 lengths, I even managed to keep count!! As Pedro has been abandoned I did alternate crawl and breast stroke. It's so frustrating. I swear I don't move at all on the crawl despite all the flailing around! Eventually, after 20 lengths I got into some sort of rhythm...that's not much good in a 30 length race!! Think I need to try to swim 3 times a week if I want to improve at all over the remaining 7 weeks.....oh god....it's sounding close!
