So...today I went swimming for the first time in 7 years. Yes, 7. Wayyyyyy too long, considering the fact that I absolutely love water and swimming and I was even on the swim team one year. lol It had been so long since I'd been in any body of water, that I didn't have any swimsuits. The only one I had was from when I was on the swim team...when I was 15! And...it fit! lol I need a new one, though. And...I still know how to swim! lol Like I'd forget. The only thing is I don't have the swimming stamina I used to have. Gotta work on that!
Oddly, and proudly, though...I learned I still have the skill for holding my breath for a long time. I used to be able to hold my breath for a minute easily and sometimes up to 1:15, which is really not THAT hard. For some reason though, when I tried this time, I was able to hold it for 1:36. I shocked myself! (Not on the first try, though.) My father used to be able to hold his breath for over 3 minutes when he was younger, and I think I got some of that skill. Well, at this point I'd say half of his skill. Ba-dum TISH! lol I know, I'm corny.
I'm looking forward to more water adventures...and maybe more goals! :)
