armless back stroke, modified breaststroke

               My record time of 57.26 for the arm-less back stroke was quite satisfying.  The laps consisted of ½ armless back stroke, and ½ modified breast.  Modified in that I move my arms, but not to the limit of their extension, thus avoiding stress and allowing my shoulder to heal.

               Whalen, Minnesota was when we were on vacation at a pleasant resort cabin that slept 25 family members.  Very hot.  Dog patch was again with my friend who lives in the most northwestern part of Des Moines. My legs are slowly becoming a bit looser.  I get in the position of ‘downward dog’ at times during exercise.
