Swim Entry – 4th February 2010

Swim
Distance: 1 mile

I felt like shit but really, wasting away in my hotel room sounds like a nightmare. So I went for a swim. Started off really badly, splashing around all over the place, choked on loads of water a couple of times. There was me, a girl and two blokes in the fast lane. The girl was stinky quick fast although she alternated between crawl and breaststroke so I caught her on each alternate length. She was easily as fast as me at crawl and no doubt had a better technique. I got to a mile and still felt fine so decided to go for two miles. About a lap later I felt all funny.

Got out, got changed, walked up to my room on the secnd floor and almost passed out on the bed, I was totally shagged for about 15 minutes. Something wrong, a vrius I expect. I googled dizziness and it is related to high blood pressure or infections pretty much. I checked my pressure when I got home and it’s 127 over 89 which might sound high to normnal people but for me is low.

My ears do feel very weird, I reckon it’s an infection. I’m drinking beer now to kill it. Sorted. My waist is thickening. I need to get back to whipcord thin time like at the end of summer last year. More cycling please.
