Just for today I can find ways to exercise that don't involve walking outside in the freezing cold in a bathing suit in the middle of a rainstorm. While the adrenaline prompted by my wearing a bathing suit may induce me to exercise or swim a little harder, I can't refrain from the running dialogue of "I am crazy, why am I doing this? " that goes through my head for at least two to three laps. I know swimming is a gentle low-impact aerobic exercise, but faulty pool-heating systems are not so gentle. They are just *@# cold. Just for today, the question remains, am I highly disciplined, or just masochistic?
