December 1st - training begins!

290 days to go... which isn't really a very long time so we'd better get cracking eh?!

Big pool session at 07:00 this morning. Myself, Neil and Phil strutted into the Magnet in our speedo's looking every inch the.... overweight, out of shape complete novice swimmers that we are! However I think we were all pretty happy with our efforts, completing around 50-60 lengths in 45 minutes. Not spectacular by any means but its a start. It was about minus 3 outside but we sure worked up a sweat in that pool!
Off to work now to load up on calories, conserve some carbs and oh yeah... do some teaching!

  1. A great start to the training lads. I think we may have to start hitting the pool a bit earlier, I need to get a jacuzzi in at the end...

  2. Amen to that buddy! You also need to invest more heavily in Speedo mate - you won't be allowed in with those bermuda's again!
