C25K Wk 1 Day 1 and Swimming

I didn't manage to get up this morning at 5. But, I did take the kids to the pool.

I swam laps using my legs only, I would do 2 laps kicking hard, then do 2 laps doing the breast stroke. This compensated for the alternating jogging and walking that I'm supposed to do. I think it was actually harder, because I was holding my breath while I was doing it!

The kids and I had a blast though. We spent an hour in the pool. When we got out, Little Sis had to use the restroom, and when she did, I noticed she got a nice tan! I put 45 SPF sunblock on them, and they still managed to tan. Better than burning, I suppose.

I even remembered to put sunblock on myself! YAY ME! I use 30 SPF Ocean Potion Anti-Aging. It smells citrus-y and works pretty good. I didn't burn, either, although I think I did tan as well.

Now we're home, and I'm tired. The kids will probably go to bed early tonight. I think I'll wait to have them shower, because we'll probably go back out for a walk tonight after dinner, and they like to stop and play a bit.

Oh, yeah! Big Sis FINALLY jumped in the pool. Well, I technically pulled her in. And she was wearing the floaty ring. But still. And Little Sis was enjoying going under water to touch the bottom by the steps. She loves to jump in. She's my little Water Baby...well, Water Girl.
