I was reminded of this today as I was talking to a client who was in the RAF during the war and was paid 15 p (3 bob in old money) a week! All around his house were pictures filled with memories of a full and interesting life and I was particularly struck by a picture of him as a youngster. Now at 85 he looks a bit different but still has a "young mind / outlook". We had a fascinating chat and it just reminded me that we should enjoy the here and now and get the most out of our lives as one day someone will be looking at our photo's and making similar observations. This doesn't mean that we shouldn't have an eye on the future but remember and smell the roses on the way.
Chlorine was the smell of the day in the pool and it was a 300m warm up, 20 x 100 m on a set time and a 200m kick drill warm down. I followed a more steady swimmer and we got the pace right which meant coming out the water without feeling like an 85 year old! I learned a lot today and not just in the pool!
