Time Well Spent

Starting to see results. I have been on a mission to get my kids moving, especially my daughter. Yesterday was a good day, no the last two days have been good. We went to Delta as planned and swimming was method of exercise. We both had a great time. It was something that made us move and play at the same time. I think it is bringing us closer. I hope. Such a touchy time of life right now.

Found out that in doing a sprint triathlon, that you have to swim one fourth of a mile. Well that is 9 laps. OK I was fine with that until I asked the lifeguard yesterday what a lap was. It is there and back. OMG I am going to die! Sunday I did 20 laps with much resting in between. Yesterday, I went 2 laps with no break. That really kills your lungs. Talk to a few people about gaining endurance. Keep working on breathing and it all will fall in place. Did some weight resistance in the current pool. Had Cas hold on to my waist as I walked backwards in the lazy river and then we switched as I held on to her. Then we played chase and if she caught me I would give her minutes for her phone. Ahh I found a motivator. Ha ha.

We both agreed to go back on Wednesday. I am glad that I am not pulling teeth so much now. Maybe just maybe she is actually enjoying our time too. Good feeling. Abit sore today. Stomach crunches tonite. She going to love me for sure!
