A new way of keeping fit

I normally used to go for a walk most morning.  Some mornings from home to Princes Park, other mornings along the Merri Creek.  My walk was approximately 8km and it took me one hour and 15 minutes to complete.   About three months ago it started to rain and it was cold and windy in the mornings so I decided to subscribe to the swimming pool.

I am not a very good swimmer and I haven't been to the pool for a long time.   I believe that the last time I was at the pool, it was when my youngest son was little, he is now 30.  The first couple of mornings I went swimming I felt a little hesitant but gradually I gained a little more confidence and started doing laps a little easier.

I am now enjoying the pool so much that I go swimming at least four times a week.  I also use the spa most of the times I go to the pool.   I have now completed my three months subscription and at the time of renewal I also decided to join the gym.

I think I feel quiet good and I also think that this swimming is beneficial to my overall wellbeing.    The swimming has so far done me good, let's see how I go with my excercising in the gym.
