When Lightning Strikes

Get out of the pool!

Brecksville Recreation Center kicks everyone out of the pool if they hear thunder. What? Thunder? In Cleveland? In March? Yes. And not just once this week. But TWICE. Remember who I am. Disaster magnet strikes again.

So what's an obsessive-compulsive athlete to do when she is cut off in mid-swim? Well... nowadays... laugh. Then take a shower, go tell Jim (my husband who is in the midst of his workout), blog it, and regroup. There's always the rubber-band workout at home. But most importantly, live and learn: from now on, always pack clothes for a weight workout. Rain or shine. Afterall, this IS Cleveland, folks.
