NoGoodslashdot.jp's Journal: [Hobby] Swim: I swim by the breast stroke only.

I challenged the long distance swim today.
Consequently, I swam by 1,250m.
It took 45 minutes.

Hereafter, it's a process.

• 10 minutes: 250m
• 20 minutes: 600m
• 30 minutes: 900m
• 33 minutes: 1,000m
• 40 minutes: 1,200m

Byron

[mercedo]

English poet Byron was good at swimming, though not good at other sports. I was only good at swimming, the vaulting horse, iron staff. In general I was poor at sports being played by several people - for example, soccer, baseball, basketball, etc.

I was unable to throw a ball straight till the age 16. I never played with a friend in my childhood.

I beg your pardon?
What is 'iron staff'?
I want more detailed commentary.

Re:Byron

It's a little bit ambiguous -iron staff is an iron bar between poles in which we exercise mainly by using our hands. Now you realised what 'realised' sorry, 'iron staff' means. Here's the picture [moe-nifty.com].

It's so very direct... orz
I was worried about whether there was a more special meaning.
