Swimming: 1,500 Meters (.932 Miles)
I swam 1,500 meters today (1 mile = 1 609.344 meters). It was raining today so I swam twenty laps of breast stroke and ten laps of free style. I went to BYU's indoor Olympic pools. It was a pretty good workout. It took me 20 minutes to finish. A calculator estimated that I burned 365 calories. That means that I can have only one piece of pie and come out even. I sure do wish I had the metabolism of a 10 year old.

Only one piece of pie for almost a mile of swimming! That is just madness!! And swimming 1500m is impressive... I swam a mile the other night all freestyle and I forgot my watch, but it was hard! I really have gotten to like swimming workouts. They make you really hungry though and you don't have all the pounding on your joints. :) Swim on!
Got back to swimming laps after 15 years. Have 3 little kids and they were in lessons tonight. Started with 15 laps (back and forth), maybe that's 30. It took me about 35 minutes with breaks :) Boy, did it feel good.
