I'm an English major, people. But today, I learned to like math!!!
1800 meters + 487 calories burned = 1 long-sleeved shirt, 1 tank top and 1 pair pants.
All because Lifetime was having a sale! Which they've only done like once in the last millennium, which is about the last time I was in shape, so I pretty much had to buy a new outfit.
Today I had to swim on my own, since my training partner supposedly had some volleyball game to play in (though, admittedly, I've yet to see any photos of, meet anyone who plays on, or hear the name of this supposed team ;) ). I had some flex time so I was able to get there an hour before the workday ended, which gave me some extra room in the pool.
It was hard to concentrate on remembering everything we learned this weekend; it was all I could do to get through the workout. I kept thinking something was wrong with my heart monitor, because for all I was huffing and puffing, I didn't even burn 500 calories. Ah well; today I gave myself permission to create yet another new equation: 45 minutes of swimming + nearly choking on pool water not once, but twice = I need a glass of merlot.
Ate some (veggie) protein, fixing a big salad and getting ready for an evening of preparing for tomorrow. Surprised to find myself suddenly craving mashed sweet potatoes....must be the chlorine.
