Swimming! I started going 2x a week. I took lessons as a kid but hated it due to a fear of water after a traumatic experience in the deep-end. I don't have that fear anymore and I really enjoy it now. I can tread water! And I can float! The mechanics of swimming and floating make a lot of sense to me now. Now I'm swimming laps to find a technique that lets me swim the longest for the least amount of energy. Mostly I copy the techniques of older folks who are also swimming laps in the lanes next to me. lol.

I figure if the game I'm working on doesn't pan out then I'll go become a sailor or something. I think thats what I'm training for, potential career change.

I swim a great deal, but I don't really like having to constantly rotate my head back and forth because I have the ear canal equivalent of Freeza so I picked up a front snorkel. Fair warning: it makes a continuous overhand style into a brutal cardio exercise partially because your focused on purely swimming and also because your "air intake" is smaller.

I am calling 2025 the Year to Just Keep Swimming to get me to do some simple things over and over, but also to get back into swimming.

I learned this year too! Didn’t know how to swim at all and went to the pool almost every other day and did exercises from the book and Udemy course called total immersion swimming and was able to finish a triathlon this year, (very slowly but it was the most relaxing part). Hope it works out!
