aqua zomba hell

Ok so I hate my wetsuit but I had this race coming up and I knew there would be the possibility that I may have to swim in the darn thing.  So since I have not trained with it at all I decided a practice swim with it would be a good idea.  So I went to my gym where there is an indoor pool.  I checked the schedule to make sure there were no  aqua classes going on and I went at an off hour in hope to be as inconspicuous as possible.  Now there are several reasons why I hate my wetsuit.  First I can't breathe in the thing.  It is a size too big for me and I still can't breathe in it.  And the thing makes me look terrible.  I feel like a big mutant oversized black fly.  It is hideous.  So I get to the gym and run into the shower to put the thing on.  I sheepishly sneak out of the shower and towards the pool area hoping no one is in the pool so I can quietly slip in and do a few laps.  Well apparently the schedule had changed because as soon as I came around the corner I came face to face with about 30 people doing aqua zomba.  The instructor who had a very extremely loud microphone welcomed me to join the class.  I was mortified!   I shook my head and ran to the safety of the showers.  That should have been my first clue that this wet suit was not my friend.  LOL
