Gah! I was mixed up and thought that there was no Zumba on Thursdays, rather than Tuesdays. Oh, well. I had a really icky day at work and was a little frustrated heading home. I had planned on going to the gym, but was going to go home first and take care of the dog. But, then I changed my mind so that I could work off some of my frustration and I had my stuff with me.
I'm glad I did. I feel much better now and I fear that if I had gone home first, I may have excuse-ed myself out of going. I didn't have my shower stuff, but decided I would swim and take a shower at home. I wasn't sure what time I got into the pool, but when I decided I needed to know, I had swum 325 yards already. So, I looked at the clock and kept time from then until 650 yards. 10 minutes had gone by. So, I backtracked and figured out I had started swimming at 6:15. It was 6:40 when I got to a half mile. If I had kept up that pace, I would have done a mile in 50 minutes. I decided I would try to shave five minutes off and hopefully get a mile done in 45 minutes.
I started doing 50 hard, 50 easy. I did this until 1300 when I decided I would try 75 hard, 75 easy for the last 300 yards. I did it and was able to finish within 45 minutes! Yay!
