Swim fit ?!?!

Yesterday, during the fitness assessment I did my knee in again and have taken myself out of the any-impact exercise game for a week or two. But today is the official start of Gods and Gladiators, so what is a girl to do?

Swim.

I haven't been in a pool to swim laps in well over a year - for various reasons we won't go into right now. Today I swam 1km (40 laps in the pool downstairs) in exactly 30 minutes. This is only 5 minutes slower than the fastest time I've ever clocked.

I am impressed with myself. Obviously the previous Geeks to Gods challenge and my continued visits to the the gym has made me almost as fit as I used to be. Now I just need to train more in the pool and see if I can get that time down to 20 minutes.
