800 yards

Swimming today! I was late to work because just as I was putting on Max's shoes so he could come outside to wave goodbye, I noticed a peculiar odor following him about like Pigpen's cloud. So upstairs for a diaper change. I will leave out the details, but suffice it to say he hadn't pooped in two days, and had eaten a lot of blueberries, so, well, I was 15 minutes late to work. Which meant that I had to cut my workout a little short at lunchtime to make up for said tardiness. This working mom athlete is a tough gig.

But I swam a very brisk 800, including 200 backstroke. My backstroke is less "stroke" and more "random splashy thrashing," but I had the pool to myself so I went for it.
