So anyway there I was proper swimming when I look over and see Ron walking towards the area I’m in. Ron looks to be in his early to mid thirties, fairly average looking, oh and I don’t actually know him; Ron is just the name I gave him for reasons that may or may not become apparent to you depending on how big a Will Ferrell fan you are.
So Ron is walking towards the pool and obviously that’s not a big deal and the only fact that registers as a little odd is that he walks by the steps to go into the pool. I take a break at this point on the opposite side of the pool directly facing Ron’s path and this how I see it. It was bizarre, I think maybe it could have been a bet, because that is the only reason I can think of for a man, alone and in his mid thirties, to do a cannonball into a busy public pool.
Now I don’t mean he just jumped, that would be bad enough (who does that in their thirties?), but this guy jumped into the air raised his knees and splashed down like a lunar capsule that just came through earths atmosphere. The splash was incredible, I’m sure I felt myself sink a little as water level dropped. And the best part was that Ron never even batted an eyelid at all the heads turned in his direction. Legend. Genuine legend.
Anyway, next week I’ll be adding some weight machines to my routine, so I’ll let you know how that goes.
‘Till then.
