No problems getting to the Y this morning for my mile walk in the pool. I feel really great. My goal is to keep it up every Mondays-Wednesday and Saturday for a month. Its doable! :)

I have read a few of your other entries and you are becoming the poster girl for banding. You look great and you must be feeling fantastic.

What is it like to walk a mile in a pool? How long does this take you?

I have access to a junior olympic size pool about three blocks from my house that is free to HOA members. It is only 25 yards wide in the shallow end, so if my math is correct I would need to do 51 laps (down and back) walking. That must take you a while but it is far easier on your ankles, knees, joints, etc. than regular walking while offering increased resistance -- like pulling a child in a wagon behind you. Great idea! Don't know if it is something I would do or could do without a waterproof iPod.

Keep up the great work.

Thanks WB, the Y made it easy for me 48 laps equals one mile. It takes me about 25 mins .Funny I ve been thinking about a waterproof iPod also. I find myself thinking about what lap I am on and then thinking about what I was doing at that year in my life...............really deep I know,thankfully I am over 48 !
