I went to the local pool for a swim today, the first time doing so since I came to Montréal nearly three years ago. I never realized it was free to use otherwise I would probably have gone much sooner, all I needed to do was prove that I live here, pay my taxes. Montréalers are lucky, when I lived in France the pools were not free like this, only a reduced price for people who live in the local area.
My arms and shoulders really ache now, my upper-body strength has gone to shit in the past few years and suddenly going the breaststroke for 30 lengths or so has certainly woken everything up. Baby steps, I'll keep going and gradually get back into form. The aim is to go two or three times per week, we'll see if I can keep to that, I suppose.
day today
