When I stepped out from the last meeting of the day, it was still bright and humid. I was glad. After that torrential downpour in the morning, it'd be nice to hit the pool.
I'm quite happy that I blew off a work associate for the dinner appointment. I've had lunch with him last week and the colleagues, separately, had already bought him another lunch and a dinner. There isn't a need for me to eat with him this evening. I can have some quality me-time.
The water was surprisingly not cold at all. There were two persons in the pool, all evenly stroking laps. Another two were getting ready and putting on swim caps and goggles. I grinned at the scene. Everyone looked so serious.
After my warm-up laps, somehow the five of us hit one end at the same time. We've met at the pool a couple of times. We usually just nod and smile in acknowledgment. Today, we kinda looked at one another and sensed this unspoken humor. We gave a thumbs-up and kicked off to some friendly competition.
Well, I guess everyone was in the mood for some serious workout. Man, did I work those arms. Today has got to be the fastest 10 laps I've ever swam.
