On Wednesday, I swam 60 laps (3000m, almost 2 miles) in under 2 hours. The next few days, I was sore from the exercise.
Saturday (yesterday), I swam 66 laps (2 miles) in 2 hours. I bought/brought a counter to click for each lap.
I think that 2 hours is a while to swim 60-66 laps.
I was muscularly able to do the swim, but it was difficult in a cardiovascular way. I had to take many breaks to catch my breath, and to cough less. I coughed most of the time that I swam.
It feels great to swim this distance! I had thought that I could only do 10 laps.
I plan on working at swimming 66 laps. I don't want to increase the number of laps until my breathing gets better.
I wish that I could listen to music underwater.
That's great, and great for you.
ReplyDeleteThank you
DeleteI wish I could swim 66 laps.....maybe I could but it would take me a while. I'm glad to hear you are doing that and I think your breathing will improve and less coughing also.
ReplyDeleteI love the watercolor you did of the flowers.
Thanks; I'm planning on swimming tonight too.
DeleteI'm glad that you like the painting.
