No good deed goes unpunished

I tried to get a little bit of incremental cardio in each day of my vacation. Two days I spent some time on the exercise cycle, but it occurred to me that I can see the inside of a health club every day. So then I took a long stroll on the hiking trail and, on my last day, I swam laps in the indoor pool.

And got an itchy chlorine rash on my legs for the trouble. Spa time is supposed to leave my skin looking happy, not angry and red!

I should have stayed on the trail! It was so green and pretty. Or maybe I should have just skipped the exercise altogether and had a cocktail. I'm still such a big, fat moo-cow that I get discouraged about the exercise, anyway.
