Aqua bootcamp

This was in March, yes I am that behind (but at least still branching out?)

Anyways one of my gym branches offered this class, and the idea stuck with me. Not sure what I was expecting. Maybe something like a masters swim club, maybe something where we all shared a pool, lanes and circle swam. Maybe multiple versions of the Lawrence 500.

That is not what I got. I didn't expect someone yelling at me to swim, ad not getting in the water himself. I didn't expect to be asked to do quick laps (think across 4 lanes and back) without time to put googles on. Very possible, but just irritating. I didn't expect dirty looks for going around people as we switched directions in a whirlpool. An I didn't expect an instructor that said I looked angry. Did I burn a million calories? Doubtful but it was fairly enjoyable. I would have been more likely to continue if it wasn't across town.
