Full time fish?

susandennisI am giving serious thought to abandoning the gym for the pool. I could do both but I'm wondering if I will.
The gym is $128 a quarter. I feel guilty when I pay and don't go. The pool is $37.50 for 10 times. So if I swim 5 days a week, it will be roughly twice as much to swim as to gym.
I can go to the gym any time I want. Swim is very scheduled. But there are a lot of classes and maybe sometimes I just want to go to and swim laps or do my own thing.
Will winter time make a difference? The only reason I do any of it is to ensure I have enough stamina to do what I want to do. Will swimming give me that? I think so. The muscles in my arms (and in my legs) are already telling me that they got a workout today.
I think I'm going to try the pool for a week. This pool that I went to today has a class every day at noon. Tuesday and Thursdays are Aqua Jog (the same class I took last Friday) and Monday, Wednesday and Friday is the class I took today.
As it happens my quarterly gym bill is due at the end of next week so I can try this for a test for week or two and then decide.
