Nearly as exciting as watching someone swim laps

RELAXED

5x200: (100 Crawl, 50 Back, 50 Breast)
-------
1000 m (1000m 24:49)

Really nice relaxing swim. Did each 200m at 5:00 minute intervals.

Had a great sauna afterwards. I can really only take a sauna in the summer, which might sound weird for some people. But my skin drys out too much in the winter for saunas, and I don't really enjoy the cold showers in the winter.

Coming out of the sauna and standing under an ice cold shower (always remember to let the water hit your head first) is just a great feeling. I actually prefer a cold water bath to the cold showers. Completely immersing your body in the cold water has a much nicer effect than the shower.

Nasty surprise: When I put my hand in my bag to get my shampoo out, I saw a big spider. It didn't make me scream, but it still freaked me out a bit. So I asked another woman if she was afraid of spiders, and she said just a bit, and she grabbed it with toilet paper and flushed it. I really could have done it myself, but I kind of like having a few weaknesses, cause I have to be so strong most of the time.
