TMI

You might not want to read this. But I just couldn't help myself. It is a little self deprecating humor. It reminds me of other stories of training- like that naked boy in the family locker room years ago (you'd have to scroll back a number of years to find that one) or bouncing off the coping of the pool last year at the start of the triathlon...
If you read the Spicy Pad Thai post that will give you some forewarning of what happened this evening. So I went to the pool at SCCL for a swim. I always am a bit self conscious on my age when I get there. Shoot we all know I am self conscious when I enter any gym. But here I think about age. On an average I have a few less pounds, a few less wrinkles, a few less gray hairs. And I still have that monthly well you know. It is why that spicy pad thai tasted so good the other night. And I am thinking this as I enter the locker room. Feeling some over the top need to be discreet. Again no real reason why. But in the effort to be discreet my klutz aspect kicks in and out of my hands onto the floor and out of the bathroom stall. So much for discreet. I just had to laugh as I scrambled to gather everything back up before anyone walked in. I was still chuckling as I entered into the gym.
With the klutz aspect kicking in... I was going to bike this evening. Please don't let me fall or trip. Thankfully the only mishap was in the locker room the bike I covered 5.5 miles in 20 minutes and 1100 yards in the pool in 30 minutes
Guess I should work to get past that age thing.
Will try again tomorrow. Last night of swimming for a while. Haircut Friday and off to MS for work on Sunday.
