Swimming? Why, Yes

Swimming is the most effortless thing I have ever done. I could swim laps all day and not get tired. The swimming lessons I took when I was training for a triathlon really paid off because I'm actually a decent swimmer.

Getting into the pool felt a little weird since, as you can see, my bathing suit is more like a full outfit. But it was totally worth it.

Towards the end of my luxurious 30 minutes in the pool a power swimmer couple jumped in my lane. She told me was doing circles and I had no idea what she meant, so I told her that was great.

After she finished a few laps she told me that I need to also swim circles so she doesn't run into me and so we can keep the flow going. I said, "Lady, I'm 8 months pregnant and in the slow lane. Does that tell you anything?" She got right out of the lane without another word.
