Hot Water

These days, I feel like my obliques are just throwing my arms into the water; that swimming is actually all about the middle of the body and that everything else is just coming along for the ride.
Annette Community Recreation Centre: another city pool kept very warm for seniors’ recreation.

RECOMMENCE
Posted in Life on May 18, 2017| Leave a Comment »
Même si des erreurs te découragent
Même si une trahison te poignarde
Même si une illusion s’éteint
Même si ton orgueil est bléssé!
RECOMMENCE
Même si l’indignation te déchire le coeur
Même si on ignore tes efforts
Même si la médisance te déroute
Même si les larmes de l’échec ruissellent dans tes yeux!
RECOMMENCE
Même si leur injustice te révolte
Même si tu es seul dans le combat
Même si la peur t’oblige à fuir
Même s’il faut abandonner!
RECOMMENCE

Likes to nurture and nourish.
Accountable. Reliable.
My cycling arrival to Antibes Community Centre happened sooner than I’d expected!
It’s the 9th.
2 more months til the half-ironman.

A linear idea about the promise of happiness: it can be attained by forward momentum.

P! I felt so strong in that pool!!! (Birchmount Community Centre), but it was murky and translucent and I was weirded out by all of that. I swam for only 40-ish minutes.
