My new life

I've finally started my new life after about four months of lack on any exercise. For the past couple of weeks I've become increasingly anxious about starting to exercise again - for some reason it has seemed difficult and unpleasant.

So I decided to start of easy by going swimming yesterday at my club. Being back there just reminded me how much I enjoy coming there - one of the reasons I really used to like going to classes. The whole athmosphere of my club - the building, the staff, the changing rooms, people, sauna... it's just a very warm and nice place to come to. I was going to go straight to the pool, but passing the sauna was too tempting and I nipped in for a quickie - it's been since Christmas since I was in a sauna last time, and it felt so good.

In the pool I was quite shocked when after hunderd meters or so my legs started to beg for mercy - my usual distance I used to swim was about a mile, and the only reason I didn't do two was the fact that I got so bored of going back and forth the little 25 meter pool. Luckily the feeling passed, and I did my intended kilometer. (And then some more sauna)

Today I was supposed to go to ashtanga class, but my teacher is on annual leave - so I guess it's back to the pool for me. But I'm starting to feel I can actually do this.
