Ok, so I spent a week in Jamaica. My wife and I have been married for 9 years and this was the first time we have had a vacation of this magnitude. Before we booked it, I made sure the resort had a fitness facility. I was assured there was a well equipped gym, but you never really know until you see it. I was pleasantly surprised. It had a bench, smith machine, dumbbells, medicine balls, ellipticals, treadmills, cable cross-over machine, and much more. However, what I enjoyed the most (in way of exercise at least) while I was there was my ocean swim. I threw on my goggles and in about 20-25 feet of water I could see clear to the bottom. I swam about 400 meters. The gym was an open-air gym with only the breeze (not one) and some ceiling fans to keep you cool. Needless to say, I did a good bit of sweating.
A lot of people commonly ask me; Why don't you relax on your vacations? Vacations are all about doing what you want to do and enjoy. Exercise has become a part of my lifestyle, and I can not dream of a week without it. Now that I am back home, I am back to training for the upcoming triathlon and up for new challenges.
