Just keep swimming...
I need to figure out some way to keep track of laps...like a bead counter thing they used a hundred years ago in math..haha.. but no joke, I need something because I can't keep track.
Anyways, I swam laps...quite a few. If I got out of breath, I changed to a kick-board to recover for a lap or two, then went back to freestyle. I also combined an additional upper body work out in with the swim. I was in a side lane on the pool so, every couple laps, I would stop and use the corner of the pool to do the equivalent of pushups on the side of the pool(2 sets of 15), then I would hold a pike position for 10 or so seconds, and repeat. A little abs, a lot of arms and shoulders. I was happy at the end of the workout. My arms were dead, everything else felt good. My knee did loosen up in the pool, but by the end of the evening(just walking to and from my car) it had gone back to the normal pains of the last couple weeks. I'm over this knee. Of course it took a $1700 plane ticket for it to finally go. I'm a little angry about it.
