While waiting for an LSPC run (work acronym mumbo jumbo) to finish today, I find myself flexing my biceps. LOL. Wow I need to get out more! Like 2 weeks of swimming will have magically caused the Miller arm flab to disappear :)
Master swim class was fine. I survived 3100 yards in an hour and 10 minutes. The sets are difficult to explain so you will have to deal with my crazy short hand until I can catch my breath and explain. I rode for 20 minutes on a stationary bike before hand. It said my average speed was 8.5 mph. WTF? No seriously WTF? There is NO WAY I am that freaking slow! They apparently won't let you spin on their nice spinning bikes unless there is a class. That really clinches the decision not to get a membership there. I mean pay $54 bucks a month and I can't even use the spin bikes? And I have to ride a crappy stationary bike that tells me my average speed on gear M-5 is 8.5 mph??? Screw that!
And to all a good night!

Elizabeth, thanks for dropping by my site. A few more days of this insane weather and I'll be swimming myself -- outside. Hope you are feeling better. I had a similar illness this week too. Sore throats blow. Especially trying to run a marathon with one.
you'd never catch me doing that (bicep flex) .... unless i was wearing a belly dancing costume .... then it's ok, so go get one.
We need pictures of your awesome biceps! :)
I hear you on the spinning bikes, my gym doesn't even have any....and they have a Physical Therapy office attached to it....
That's why I can't wait for my bike and the trainer I intend to get.
And damn woman, you swim A TON.
Is your stationary bike accomplice of my "stationary2 Garmin? It said 8'/Km (km, no mile!!!). I hope you will not leave us to begin a "swimming" blog.
I am with Flat, need pics to show those define biceps. I gotta start flexing while i work too :) hahaha.
Don't worry about the stationary bike. Even on my trainer, I am not worry about my bike speed. It is different b/c on a trainer or stationary bike, you can set the tension....so if u want to make it go really fast u can always loosen the tension and speed up.
I bet the stationary bike found out about your growing ego after the bicep flexing incidnet, so it decided to knock you down a peg. It's a little-known fact that stationary bikes dislike divas.
