[QUOTE="kev-w, post: 1726385, member: 452484"] And another week goes by and I'm still 4kg short of that good lift day, although I did ok today training my back at lunchtime, and took the child swimming before tea and she swam 20 lengths with me, she's been idle recently and it's been hard work getting her to graft at her swimming. I started taking her to the pool when she was 6, I'd previously given swimming up due to a bad hypo when teaching my older kids a long time back whilst on Humalin S and had needed an ambulance to the pool as I dropped unconscious in the changing rooms so was nervous at first, but once I'd taught her the basics and she could swim lengths of the little pool I had to bite the bullet and start swimming again so I'd be 'safe' with her in the big pool, she'd swum a km breaststroke alongside me before her 10th birthday and at the turn of the year aged 11 managed 1/2 km (20 lengths) front crawl with tumble turns :) It certainly keeps me on my toes.
