Swimming is Hard

I am thinking about doing a triathlon (a shorter one) sometime next year, so when we took Noah to the pool yesterday, I thought I'd swim some laps. I am not even going to mention the pitiful distance I swam before I was exhausted. Let's just say I have a long way to go before I am ready for a tri. I am so sore today too. Ouch!

Heck, no. I am not ready to start training for anything involving swimming yet, clearly.

ha, ha, welcome to my world. Not that you were ever one of the people who gave me a hard time for swimming, but its nice for new people to try it and see how difficult it can be to swim. Don't worry you will get better quickly. Most triathletes struggle with the swim. That's why its my favorite part. It's the only time I'm in the lead.
