[...] It was a bit of a rush to get to the pool last night and by the time the we were allowed in, the session was only 35 minutes long. The shorter window of time focuses the mind though, so I actually had a better workout that normal. Still lots of breast stroke lengths, [...] Another visit to the public baths tonight, this time for about 55 minutes. It would have been longer but they don’t start selling tickets until a nanosecond before the session starts.

Along [...] And both Kim and I agree that, even after only one week of doing the chi-kung exercises each day, we really do feel great. I doubly recommend it! [...] He had chosen some simple, memorable aspects of Chi-Kung to teach us in this introductory session, aiming to send us away more interested in the art and with the ability to replicate the patterns and derive genuine benefit from only a short intervention. [...] I fully intended to run this morning, but there was ice on the car outside and I wimped out.
