I love to swim. I am a good debater. I enjoy computer programming. I just started a new job as a prison guard. I have been to jail and to prison. I work at night. I recently got a raise. I work at a prison. I'm interested in computer programming. I live in a house. I want a swimming pool. I live 30 minutes away from a public swimming pool. I don't like to wake up early.  I begin working at 8 am. I enjoy sleeping in. I go running and swimming every night. I can run a mile in 7 minutes. I run a mile in 9 minutes comfortably.
I live near a pool. I go swimming occasionally.I don't have a gym membership. I'm a middle school teacher. I have a back yard. I like swimming pools.  I don't have room for a swimming pool. I live near a public swimming pool.  Sometimes I swim at the public swimming pool. I usually go to the public swimming pool before 6 am. I go to work right after I swim at the pool. I am training for the Iron Man. I run a mile in just under nine. I am not making much progress in my training. I would like to do the Iron Man in Hawaii in October. I have trouble being motivated. I feel like I have bronchitis after I run. I need to make an appointment with a doctor.
You really should see a doctor, just to make sure it's not anything serious. Maybe if you feel better you'll be more motivated to train. That is good advice. I really hate going to the doctor, but I think you are right. It could go a long way to improving your mile time as well.  Do you think you will still do the iron man if you aren't feeling well after running? I do think I will. I had had this goal for years and to not complete it would be devastating. I need to prove this to myself that I can do it. Well, at least the doctor can tell you whether it is safe or not.  If I had time off I would love to join you.  But, I don't have enough time off just yet.  Maybe next year? That would be great! I would love a partner through the journey! How is work? Exhausting!  lol.  Lots of training right now.  I am hoping to get into a regular routine once I have completed it.  I just want to get to work! I understand that. Starting a new job is so anti climactic because it takes so long to actually start THE job. True.  Some of the training is interesting and it is all definitely needed since we go over safety protocols and the like.  I would rather be safe than rush through things. For sure. You are going to be a tough line of work and want to be prepared. Well, some middle schools I have heard of aren't the easiest either!  How is your school?  Is it nice? It is really nice! I got very lucky :)
