Scared

While researching Masters swimming on the internets last month, I came across a group that holds swim workouts at the University a few miles from my apartment. They cater to all levels of adult swimmers - even beginners - and their practice times work out better for me than the organized pool workouts at my gym. Plus, they're way closer to my apartment (and thusly way easier to get to/from) than my gym is.

I sat on it. I pondered it for a while. Then, today, when I was pondering around their web site, I saw that they offered a free "trial" workout to new/prospective members. I filled out the form. I got my free workout coupon.

I'm going tonight. I'm incredibly nervous, but I think it'll be good. Just in case, though, cross your fingers for me and hope that they're nice, friendly people who won't make fun of the fact that I have no idea how to turn at the end of the lane without putting my feet down.

I've been in master's swimming for a few years, after maybe 20 years out of the pool. It's been a great help, both to my swimming ability and general fitness. Hope it works out for you!
