Well, I failed the swim test on my first scuba lesson.
I had to swim 8 lengths of a 50-yd pool. After about 3-1/2 lengths, the instructor told me to stop because I was clearly exhausted. I could barely get out of the pool. I didn't think I was THAT out of shape because I walk a fair bit, but I guess I am, especially in the upper body.
I was fine at treading water.
I'm glad I signed up for swimming lessons, starting this Sunday. I'm also starting deep water aquafit 3x a week.
My new goal is to get fit enough to take scuba training later on.
I'll STILL see you all underwater - just a little later than I thought!
