    Yoda,
    DH was with me this morning, he said I looked pretty good. I felt in my hammies so I think I was pretty close as far as the rear leg extension.

    And it is my right elbow and forearm that hurt. Shoulders just feel tried, but not painful. I may have to just cut my distance down until I start kicking again. I am going to rest and ice it, the last thing I need is another freakin' "itis"

    Alpine...google pool running, or aqua running, I found tons of info. I bought a flotation belt to use, turns out they had them at the pool already. Check in to it, they may have them at your pool.

    I would have to agree with the start slow strategy! It is really easy to over work the knee flexors when running in the water. I would start with 10 min. and work up in 5 min. increments or less. Using a flotation belt will make it a lot easier. I prefer not to use one but you may want to alternate using it and not using it until it feels easier without it. You will work your cardio more without it. Hope this helps.

    LOVE LIFE
