Went to the rec center to swim for what will be the last time ever. After splashing around for awhile, swallowing half the pool and making a complete fool of myself I decided to throw in the towel. I still can't make it 50 meters with out having to flip over and resort to a back stroke to finish the lap. I don't expect to be a great swimmer by any means but I would like to at least be competent. Maybe it is just not my thing. Left the rec center and decided to lace up the shoes and head up to elephant rock. Took it very easy going up and felt surprisingly good. No soreness at all. My right calf started to ache on the way back down but nothing too serious. So it looks like I will keep being a one trick pony. At least I'm a semi-competent runner.
