The HIT Method, Cody | Jan. 26, 2019, 8:30am – 3:00pm | Paul Stock Aquatic & Rec Center

...this made my week! Now I'm not a doc, so I wouldn't tell anyone to go off meds or ignore doctors orders.... but hearing this seriously made me grin from ear to ear!
(And yes, this person was grinning when sharing the news)

I have always felt everyone should do water; the benefits have been proven time and time again .... but the question remains: why don't more people do it??? And, deep water IS different than shallow because of the open kinetic chain (I mention this only because the year prior to her learning deep water,  she was doing shallow water aerobics). Please share and get more people in the pool!

Awesome day swimming in the ocean.....I stepped away from the sub zero temps of #montana to jump into the tropical waters of Cozumel... I came down to Tulum for my friend Maya's 40th bday. Wonderful days spent chillin out. 
Today, when I jumped in the water, I was back alive again..... now eyeballin IM here.... oh, that would be as awesome as when I did the Maui IM almost 20 years ago. 
Hummmmmm.... maybe?
