I'm not gonna lie. It was tough. It always is after a long break. My PoolMate confirmed what I felt - I have missed my regular swims due to nasty sore throats and general under-the-weather-edness. I wasn't alone. I shared a lane for part of my session with a guy who had been similarly plagued with winter sickness. We were both 'taking it easy'. Apparently. Thing is, enthusiasm got the better of me. I managed just a little over 2.5k but it took far longer than it usually would. Although it was only shortly after 4 in the afternoon, with it being dark, the pool didn't feel like the right environment at that time of day. In the winter months, I am a morning and early afternoon swimmer. It was great to be back in the water. I know no better mood enhancer.
