Swam a mile yesterday\u00a0 \u00a0 Saturday May 28, 2016. \u00a0The last time I swam a mile was in 2011. \u00a0That was the year I swam across the largest natural lake in Iowa for the fifth time. \u00a0When I swim Spirit Lake on\u00a0Friday, July 29, 2016\u00a0it will be the sixth time. I will be swimming across the lake 59 years almost to the day since my first swim in 1957. \u00a0I keep a journal. Something I make a note of almost every entry is how physically active I was today? What did I do physically? \u00a0So I have my training schedule from the spring of 2011. I know the day I began to train and how far I went during each training session. My first mile, my first hour-long kick, my first 90 minutes swim etc. When I looked at that earlier schedule I discovered I had started swimming much earlier than I did this year. I found it a bit daunting. I quit looking at it. \u00a0I will train to get in as good shape as I am able. I swam an hour yesterday without stopping. I\u2019m on my way to completing the big lake swim. \u00a0I swim three days a week and I kick for over an hour three times a week. I just love lake swimming.<\/p>\n\n

That\u2019s it.<\/p>\n\n

Keep moving people. It\u2019s the secret to life.<\/p>\n\n

Warmly, Stephen<\/p>\n\n
