3rd Element

Couple years ago during the job interview I was asked what is my personal goal for next five years. I didn’t think about such perspective beforehand, but suddenly replied that I want to make thriathon.

However, by then I can not ribe the bicycle and my swimming is enough for Taganrog Bay where you can always feel the bottom.Meanwhile, I kept running, last year took a corse and started riding the bicycle. The only thing that I missed was swimming.

And you can understand now my joy, when after moving to Dresden, realized that the closest sport facility is swimming pool, and my employee provides free assess to it. So, I started December with swimming: bought essential equipment, and opened the season.

The building itself not new, but has a nice look. Inside there are 5 tracks 25 meters long.

During the first visit I made like 500 meters and couldn’t raise my arms the next day. Last time I made 1200 meters and I’m looking forward to improve this result. Of course my technique is wrong and horrible, but I have YouTube and the whole winter ahead! And who knows, maybe thriathlon is still possible.
