And today ...

I went swimbling!

I got up early and popped on my cossie to gain an extra minute or two at the pool.

I was in the pool for about 50-55mins. I did 1m (64 lengths) and swimming time was 47.29. The finger counter/watch thing I got offf Hollywood also gives me lovely stats!

Best length (always the 1st however hard I try to swim it slow!) was 1min 15. When I say length I means 2 lengths or 50m.
Worse 1mins 40
Average 1min 29 which is my best I think which is excellent!

The goggles make a lot of difference! It's nice to be able to see others and the time and everything!

The times look good but it felt hard, which was either the fact I am getting slightly faster or that it's because I am swimming on a glass of low cal no sugar (lots of sweetners) fruit juice which gives about 10cals per 250ml!

When I go swimming I make a travel mug of tea up and by the time I have finished my swim it's perfect to drink. Boy did today's tea taste lovely! It was then as I changed that I realised I had forgotten my bra! Whoops! Looks like I'm shopping at lunch!!

The Next Three Weeks

So I have a few busy weeks ahead that may, or may not, affect what happens here. So this weekend I am running the Chester metric marathon - should do about 3:30 and get a PB by around 30 mins if things go to plan. Next week I am on holiday and have the in-laws visiting which will be nice. Then after then I have 2 weeks of jury service in Derby. I really want to get a case as I am really interested in knowing what actually happens and what it's like in court. But knowing my luck I will have 2 weeks of waiting for nothing. I have Ami's zoom calls to review and take notes on, books to read, coloring/drawing to try my hand at and Loki to watch! After that the exciting news is my part time request has gone through so from 4th December I will be part time. Very exciting. Then hopefully I can start a potential path to being a swimming teacher. Fun days ahead

What Are You??

Apparently I am a geek after spending some time chatting to a first line support person and comparing degrees!! I am also apparently an executive as I earn more than a certain sum of money! This I must point out is executive in the eyes of a Midlands person and not a southern!! I think I am a runner and a mother because I run and have a son! I don't think I have a career and would struggle to define what I really do! Talking of which I may change the address for this site to blog.html or similar because if I do go job hunting I am not sure if my made ramblings should be front page news!! hehe!! I currently work in IT doing support with a hint of customer service at second line. I run and I'm trying to learn to draw! So what or who are you!?!
