I made myself a promise…

I made myself a promise that if I didn't go to the gym at least twice a week, preferably three, I'd cancel my membership at the end of January. We have a treadmill and weights in the basement, so the main reason I go is to swim. I finally made it over today -- even with my flexible schedule, it's surprisingly difficult to get over there.

I only swam for ten minutes, because it has been a while and I got tired! But I also did five minutes in the whirlpool and five minutes in the eucalyptus sauna, having a schvitz, and I felt really good afterwards.

Walking has been my main exercise the last month, and walking is great, but walking is not everything. My arms are happier now. :-)
