Sunday Swim

Been under the weather lately .... think I caught the flu bug from niece ... She was running a fever for over 6 days that I brought her to the A&E pediatrics when the GP suggested so.

Anyway, she is well on the road to recovery *Thank Heavens !!!* and its now my turn fighting the virus.

Since I could feel some slight pain on my shin this week, and with my condition, skipping the run was (almost) a no-brainer.  I ignored the alarm this mrn, and slept til 8.  That sealed my decision not to run (yes, i'm a SLACKER!!! :P).  Thought I'll head for a swim instead.

That turned out to be a fantastic move because the pool was empty for most of my swim.  Yay!!!! I felt almost like I owned the pool.  It was very very relaxing to be taking it easy, just swimming and enjoying every minute of it.  Swam for an hour, then R&R on the deck chair by the pool, managed to sleep a little before an ang mo talking loudly on the phone woke me up.  So went back to into the pool and alternate between freestyle and breast-stroke.  Hey! I realised I could swim freestyle today.  Not good yet but at least it wasn't that laborious with every stroke!!! YIPEEE!!! *clap clap*

Did that for another half hour before I call it a day.

Fantastic way to start a sunday mrn.  How I wish the pool is always so empty and quiet :P
