Purchases

Today was a shopping day for me. I wanted anti chlorine shampoo, body wash, and conditioner. This took me to a discount swimming site where i could have saved $10 over amazon (I checked myself) but I fell victim to an involuntary shopping spree. After adding deck shoes (Athletes foot can't be great), swimsuit cleaner by speedo (how many years of swimming I got through with out this product, not sure why i felt the need to purchase it), a few backup swim caps then I found what I had been wanting all along (I just did not know it). Prescription goggles.

To be able to see the pace clock with out squinting or guessing. I'm in love already.

I did talk myself out of some other stuff like pull buoys, paddles and a kick board. Maybe later but for now the pool has all but the paddles.

Then to my shoe mission. I needed new work shoes. I hate shopping for shoes. This weekend was very unsuccessful in this department. Determined, I found not 1 or 2 but 5 pairs of shoes. I may never need to shoe shop again!!! My wallet hopes so.

With all of my swimming purchases in mind, I hit the pool. Though my swimming is soo much slower then I had imagined, It felt great. As an experiment I did a final 200 all out for time and ended exactly at 3:00. Sad. At least it was at the end of the workout.
