Inali nthawi yomwe ndinameza madzi a dziwe kuti ndizindikire kuti sindingakhale ndi mphindi yanga ya Ariel. M'dziwe lotentha tsiku ladzuwa koma kozizira-ku-San Diego, ndidathamanga ndi azimayi ena asanu ndi awiri atavala michira ya nsomba mu kalasi yolimbitsa thupi ya Hotel Del Coronado. Tsitsi langa, lomwe ndimalipanga kukhala mafunde a m'mphepete mwa nyanja kuti liziwoneka bwino kwambiri, linali likunyowa komanso lopaka m'mutu mwanga. Ndinkayembekeza kukhala wachisomo ngati Ariel, koma m'malo mwake ndimangoyenda mozungulira ngati gulu lomwe likupumira mpweya padoko.

Ndimagwira ntchito pafupipafupi ndipo ndikukula ndimawona zanga Mermaid Wamng'ono VHS mpaka tepiyo idavala yoonda. Chifukwa chake nditamva za kalasi yolimbitsa thupi ya Hotel Del Coronado ($ 25 ya alendo; $ 10 ya mamembala a Del), ine anali kulembetsa. Yoyambitsidwa chilimwe chatha, idawombera nthawi yomweyo, pomwe azimayi adalembetsa miyezi itatu pasadakhale Lachisanu ndi Loweruka m'mawa. The 45-minute splashfest idapangidwa kuti ipititse patsogolo kalasi ya Agogo amadzi a aerobics kwa zaka chikwi ndi kuphatikiza kwa kusambira, core, cardio, ndi maphunziro amphamvu omwe ali ovuta kwambiri kuti akupwetekeni tsiku lotsatira. (PS Mermaid Toast Ndi Njira Yatsopano Yopanda Chakudya Cham'mawa Yomwe Mwawayesa.)

Titanyamula michira yathu kuchokera pamtengo wonyezimira wa turquoise, wobiriwira wa emarodi, golide, wofiirira, ndi pinki ya neon, mlangizi wathu, Veronica Rohan, yemwe adapanga masewera olimbitsa thupi, adatitsimikizira kuti michira ikhala yosiyana kwambiri. Koma kupeza mchira kunali kosavuta kunena kuposa kuchita. Rohan anatiuza kuti tilunjikitse chubucho mbali ya mchira mpaka tikhoze kulowetsa mapazi athu mu zipsepsezo ndi Velcro pamalo ake motetezedwa, kenaka pindani nsaluyo pamwamba pamiyendo ndi m'chiuno. Kuti tikwaniritse izi, aliyense wa ife adachita mayendedwe abwinobwino atagona chagada, kuyamwa, ndikuwonetsera zinthu zowoneka bwino, zomwe zimafuna kuyesa kutsekera tinsalu tothina kwambiri. Ndidamva Ursula wopepuka pang'ono kuposa Ahe.

Rohan atayamba kuimba, tonse tidalumphira mu dziwe. Ndinayesetsa kuti tsitsi langa likhale louma, koma kukhala wowongoka ndi mchira wanga komanso malo anga atsopano a mphamvu yokoka kunakhala kovuta, ndipo ndidadzigwedeza ndekha. Rohan adalongosola kuti njira yabwino yodziwonetsera patsogolo ndikupanga zolimbitsa thupi-kutsitsa m'madzi kuchokera m'khosi mpaka m'maondo-kuti tisayese kugwiritsa ntchito miyendo yathu mozama. Adapatsa Zakudyazi padziwe ndikutiuza kuti tisambire m'mimba mwathu mozungulira dziwe. Zaka zanga zosambira ndili mwana, ndikupanga mayendedwe ofanana agulugufe, adandiwombera mtsogolo mwachangu ... kulowa mchisomo chomwe chinali patsogolo panga. Mwamwayi, sanakhumudwe, chifukwa anali otanganidwa ndikudziponyera pakona pa dziwe, pomwe adakakamira ndipo adavutika kutembenuka, akumenyetsa mchira wake pamwamba pake.

Nditachita maulendo angapo pamimba panga, kuyesera kuti ndisatengenso madzi a padziwe kachiwiri, tinauzidwa kuti titembenukire pamsana pathu. Tidazungulira thupi limodzi mozungulira dziwe-ndipo mwadzidzidzi ndimadumphira m'madzi ngati cholengedwa cham'nyanja. Ndinapitilizabe kumva ngati nymph titaimirira, mchira wanga umayenda bwino kuyambira mphindi zochepa m'mbuyomu. Tinkagwiritsa ntchito ma triceps ndi ma biceps ndi Zakudyazi pansi pamadzi, kuzikweza ndi kuzitsitsa pang'onopang'ono polimbana ndi madzi. (Njira ina yopanga dziwe yopanga mafunde? Aquacycling.)

Kenako, inali nthawi yoti tituluke mu dziwe kuti tizichita masewera olimbitsa thupi ab. Zosavuta, chabwino? Ndimazolowera kudzikweza ndikudutsa m'mbali mwa dziwe ndi mikono yanga mpaka nditha kugunda bondo, kenako ndikugwiritsa ntchito thupi langa lakumunsi kudzikweza. Yesani izo ndi mchira! Kutembenuka, njira yokhayo yotuluka padziwe ndikudzikweza ndi mikono yanu, kenako ndikupukuta mchira wanu ngati wamisala kuti mudzichotse m'madzi mokwanira kuti muthe kugwedeza matako anu konkriti imodzi. Izi zidachititsanso ena kubuula, ena kugwa padziwe, ndikukwapuka komanso kuseka. Tonse titakhala pampando, tinauzidwa kuti titulutse michira yathu m'madzi, ndipo tidachita zingapo ndikumenyetsa mchira, makamaka "The 100" yomwe ndidachita pafupifupi maulendo 100 m'maphunziro osiyanasiyana a Pilates . Nthawi ino, komabe, zinali zovuta kwambiri. Ngakhale mchira wonyowayo mwina unkalemera makilogalamu ochepera 5, unali wokwanira cholembera kuti ntchito yanga yayikulu ikhale yolimba kuposa masiku onse.

Ngakhale kuti #mermaidfails, mphindi 45 zitatha, sindinkafuna kuchotsa mchira ndikuyambiranso moyo pamtunda. Ndimaganiza kuti kalasiyo idzangokhala yopusa komanso yosangalatsa, koma ndimatha kumva kupsa m'manja mwanga kuchokera kwa omwe anali apamwamba komanso pamutu panga pokhazikika pokhazikika. .
