OMGoodness! You swim exactly twice as fast as I do - on my fastest day!

Go TEAM!

Sounds sublime... Except for the creepy crawly.

Go TEAM!

Wow and full screen even!

I love the total disarray of your desktop icons there Dow, they kinda look like little floating paper sailboats and paper airplanes!

ha ha, and that was after I cleaned up a bit before letting everyone come by for a visit, and admire your picture!

i suspected your desktop wasn't normally that empty, just didn't look quite right to me! tidying up, that explains it. yes, is a lovely desktop photo to have.

Today's stats:

swim 1,200
time 60 minutes
getting a massage 60 minutes ~ do I get to count 1/2 time for doing the prone exercise?

(and thanks for the 20 minute mile vote of confidence, but i think mine is really more like 30 )

Go TEAM!

finally rain today! yay! (we needed it)

so no outdoor walking or biking, maybe swimming in a puddle somewhere.

no, probably not.

will be walking around an art exhibit, but probably will only walk 50 feet in an hour!

so will just count today as a day off.

I love Mig's picture, but still think it's missing something...

Don't you think it needs my friend Nigel on his floaty thing somewhere?

Hopefully I'll get to that one of these days, have to come up with something funny for the heron to say as he passes by

Please add my 2000 yards for today!

But today was special, added something that we've been talking about for over a year now, first with CC, and a few other times as well

I finally tried my underwater headphones that I got from Marsha on my birthday!

And it was really really cool!!

I already had the underwater housing for the iPod, bought to protect it from accidental droppage into the hot tub (learned that the hard way... )

So before getting into the pool, I strapped the iPod on my arm, put on the headphones, and hit the play button. It didn't sound very good, kinda tinny, but I wasn't expecting much, these are completely waterproof ear buds, remember..

But then got underwater, really thinking that something terrible was going to happen, the music would just fizzle out, or I'd get an electric shock or something

But as soon as I was completely immersed, the bass in the music came in, and they sounded full and rich!

Let me tell you, it is very weird to be swimming underwater, on the bottom of the pool, holding your breath, and listening to Peter Gabriel sing "I Go Swimming" !!!!

(The way the earbuds work is that when underwater, the water actually seals them in to make a better fit, and then magically the low frequencies can be heard)

Can't wait for a day when it rains here, nothing will stop me now!
