Rainy, gusty Tuesday

Got up as normal for a Tuesday morning at 4:30 am. Lots of rain was coming down. Thought I saw some light across the bedroom from lightning. As I got ready to leave, Karen confirmed that she had heard some lightning. Man, would I be mad if I arrived at the Y at 5 am and the pool was closed because of the weather, Rain is one thing, but no swimming when there is a hint of lightning. I decided to crawl back in bed and get an extra 30 minutes of sleep and then head up to the Y for Jane's 6 o'clock spin class. Smart move.

When I arrived, the pool was closed. Not because of weather, but because the lifeguards had overslept. I was very satisfied in my decision to catch some extra shuteye.

Jane's spin class wasn't packed as usual. I'm sure the sound of rain outside caused more than one person to hit the snooze button a couple of times. It was really coming down this morning. James popped in midway through spin. Since he couldn't swim, he decided he would spin until the pool opened. After spin, I went down to get in the pool, and now it was closed because of weather. I asked Darrell at the front desk when it would open and he said 7. Excellent.

When the pool finally opened, everyone had their own lane. I did my 2000 and headed home.

Good workout today and extra sleep. Bonus!
