Know Your Limits

I know my limits. 13 laps around the yard is a mile.

 Of course, I walk a bit out so it’s not exact but I do 

know that if I give out, I can make it home.

Same goes with riding a stationary bike. 

I can ride several miles and still be home in time for supper.

If you swim in the deep in of the pool you must be able to

make it to the edge or else, you could be in trouble.

But being safe doesn’t mean you shouldn’t push yourself.

One more lap when walking, one more set of commercials 

while riding the stationary bike.

As for swimming, I walk out to where I feel comfortable 

then swim crosswise. If I give out I put my feet down. 

That doesn’t keep me from swimming one more lap before 

calling it quits for the day. Push yourself a bit further and in

a week or a month, see how much you have accomplished.
