I did it
Got up
Slipped on my suit
Headed to my car
Checked the thermometer
48 degrees
Frost lingered on the roof tops
Car was cold
Thought of the trek
From the warm locker room
To the freezing pool deck
Shuddered
Donned my swim cap and goggles
...Inside the warm locker room
Stepped outside
Chill cut directly to my bones
Found my own lane
Slid into the water--
Ahhh....warm
Sandwiched between two men
Kept up with both of them
...When swimming breast stroke
...While they swam freestyle
Think it bugged them
Like to play that kind of game
Finished a 1500
Had a nice warm shower
Had a much warmer stint in the sauna
I did it
And I feel good!

Hmmmmm sounds great to me Karen. My pool is a big ice cube - STUCK. Keep it up even if it bugs those men.
